The Eagles and right tackle Lane Johnson have negotiated a new deal for four years and $72 million. With the deal, Johnson is now the highest-paid offensive lineman in the history of the NFL. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo was the first to report the deal.
Johnson, 29, has been one of the best tackles in the league for several years now. He has made the Pro Bowl twice and was a part of the Eagles’ Super Bowl-winning team in the 2017-2018 season.
The Eagles will hope that Johnson can continue to protect Carson Wentz, who has struggled with injuries throughout his career. Johnson is currently dealing with a concussion, but may return this week for Philadelphia.
