Lane Johnson? Wow. That's a tough loss. He was supposed to solidify their offensive line.

My buddy jackzors doesn't even care. Says they'll go 4-0 or 3-1 without big Lane.

This is a big blow, guy struggled a little starting out last season as a rookie (#4 overall pick and all) but caught on quick and really played well the second half.

First 4 games, that's tough. Hopefully he comes back game 5 and does his thing. Our starting 5 are nothing beyond outstanding, but beyond them the depth is questionable.

Eagles RT Lane Johnson has "bulked up" this offseason.
Johnson reported to OTAs noticeably stronger after playing last season at 310 pounds. He allowed 10 sacks as a rookie and was overmatched at times in pass protection, but received positive grades from Pro Football Focus in eight of his final nine games. Johnson won't be moving to left tackle any time soon and will return as a bookend to Jason Peters this year. Apr 25


Then months later

NFL suspended Eagles RT Lane Johnson four games for violating the league's policy against performance-enhancing drugs.
Perhaps not-so-ironically, our last update on Johnson was regarding his "bulked up" frame this offseason. The Eagles signed Allen Barbre to a three-year extension earlier this month, and he figures to get the first crack at replacing Johnson at right tackle. The No. 4 overall pick in the 2013 draft, Johnson had an outstanding rookie year as a run blocker, but coughed up ten sacks in pass protection. Johnson will miss games against Jacksonville, Indianapolis, Washington, and San Francisco. He'll be eligible to return in Week 5. Jun 30


Chip can't be happy about this one. :rolleyes:
