Eagles' Lane Johnson agrees to one-year extension
The Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles continue to reward their own this offseason. On Monday, they re-upped with their six-time Pro Bowl right tackle Lane Johnson.
The owner of No.65 Philadelphia Eagles football jersey,Johnson, who earned both a Pro Bowl selection and second-team All-Pro nod at the age of 34 in 2024, redid his contract with Philadelphia to tack on an extra $8 million across 2025 and 2026 as well as an extra $30 million in guarantees, per ESPN. Johnson now stands to receive $48 million across 2025 and 2026.
Johnson weared the NFL jerseys and played high-level football in 2024, not allowing a sack in addition to just giving up one quarterback hit and six quarterback pressures. Even more impressive about those numbers was his 75% island rate, which led the NFL. Blocking for the 2024 NFL rushing champion and Offensive Player of the Year in Barkley also certainly helped Johnson's contract negotiations.
