The Philadelphia Eagles and six-time Pro Bowl right tackle Lane Johnson agreed to a one-year contract extension on Monday, keeping him in the fold for the Super Bowl champs through the 2027 season.
Johnson, a 12-year veteran, all with Philadelphia, is having a total of $8 million added for the next two seasons, plus an extra $30 million guaranteed. That brings his compensation for 2025-26 to $48 million, with $40 million assured.
Johnson, who turns 35 in May, will earn $25 million in 2027. He has been an All-Pro first- or second-team selection four times, including each of the past three seasons, and has been a starter in all 158 of his games with the Eagles.
Johnson did not surrender a sack last season, and gave up just one quarterback hit and six pressures. Those numbers are especially significant given that he led the NFL with a so-called “island rate” of 75 percent. That statistic counts the amount of snaps a lineman is left one-on-one with a defensive lineman on quarterback drop-backs.
