Lane

Johnson

Johnson missed Week 4 with a concussion. Philly got their bye last week, giving the stalwart right tackle plenty of time to clear the protocol. He is good to go for a tough matchup versus Cleveland’s vaunted pass-rush.

Johnson made progress through the league’s concussion protocol during the week but was unable to clear the final hurdles over the weekend. The Eagles get their bye in Week 5, giving Johnson and the rest of their banged-up offense an extra week to recover. Johnson should be back on the field for Philly’s Week 6 game against the Browns. Fred Johnson will take his spot at right tackle versus the Bucs this week.

Johnson got in two limited practices before being listed as questionable, suggesting he’s making progress through the concussion protocol. He remains a game-time call. Right guard Mekhi Becton suffered a finger injury in Week 3 but is good to go.

Eagles beat writer Jeff McLane reports Johnson was seen stretching with the team but did not have his helmet with him, indicating that he’s nearing a return but has not cleared concussion protocol. Johnson left Week 3’s contest against the Saints with a concussion, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him miss at least one game, but we’ll have a better sense of his availability after Friday. If he’s unable to go, backup Fred Johnson, who replaced him last week, would start in his place.

Johnson suffered the concussion early in the Eagles’ Week 3 win over the Saints and is now in the league’s concussion protocol. Veteran swing tackle Fred Johnson took his spot in the lineup last week and could be in line for another start if Lane is sidelined for Week 4. Right guard Mekhi Becton was present for Philly’s walkthrough on Wednesday after suffering a finger injury in Week 3.

Right guard Mekhi Becton is questionable to return with a finger injury. He suffered the finger injury in the first half and did not take the field to start the third quarter, making it unlikely he will return this week. These injuries are a massive blow for a team that relies on winning through the trenches.

Johnson was added to the injury report on Sunday morning with the groin issue. He ultimately sat out of the Eagles’ matchup with the Bills. Johnson eventually said he popped scar tissue in his groin from last season, causing him to sit. A limited practice on Wednesday suggests he will be back in action for a crucial Week 13 matchup with the 49ers.

The much missed Johnson said he popped scar tissue in his groin from last season, which explains why he sat in Week 12. The Eagles will need every reinforcement they can get as they are set to have a showdown with the 49ers who have been on fire since returning from their bye. Jalen Hurts was able to make do without his best lineman against the Bills, but having Johnson will greatly improve the Eagles’ chances of operating on offense.

Johnson was downgraded to questionable ahead of Week 12’s matchup against the Bills and was later ruled out. His groin injury popped up late in the week and proved problematic enough to sideline him for at least one week. An MRI didn’t reveal any significant damage to Johnson, giving him a chance to play in Week 13 against the 49ers. If he’s not able to go, backup Jack Driscoll will likely suit up for a second-consecutive game at right tackle.

Johnson was downgraded to questionable earlier in the day and has officially been ruled out. CBS Sports’ Tracy Wolfson reports Jack Driscoll will get the start at right tackle in place of Johnson. In addition to Johnson being ruled out, the Eagles also declared QB Tanner McKee, TE Dallas Goedert, RB Rashaad Penny, DB Josiah Scott, TE Grant Calcaterra, and DT Milton Williams inactive against the Bills.
