Lane Johnson Plans to Return to Philadelphia Eagles for 14th Season
- On Thursday, Lane Johnson, Eagles right tackle, confirmed to The Philadelphia Inquirer he will return for the 2026 season, ending retirement speculation and sharing a comeback photo at Lincoln Financial Field.
- After a Lisfranc foot injury ended his season, Johnson missed the final eight games including the wild-card loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and Jeff Stoutland's offseason departure intensified retirement speculation.
- Johnson started 10 games in 2025 and, according to Pro Football Focus, allowed zero sacks or quarterback hits; he is a two-time first-team All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler with 168 regular-season games and 15 playoff games played.
- By agreeing to return Johnson will collect a $1.3 million base salary and a $40.4 million signing bonus, with cap charges reported at $24.039 million and $20.2 million, securing offensive line continuity.
- Ahead of next week's NFL Combine, Johnson met with new offensive line coach Chris Kuper and OC Sean Mannion recently and is expected to be at full strength in the near future.
