Report: Lane Johnson, Eagles Rework Contract; Add $30M in Guaranteed Money

Lane Johnson is in line to remain with the Philadelphia Eagles through at least the 2027 season.

Philadelphia announced it agreed to a one-year contract extension with its star offensive tackle Monday:

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the reworked deal means Johnson will make $48 million over the next two years with $40 million guaranteed. Ultimately, the move added $8 million over the next two seasons and an additional $30 million guaranteed.

While Johnson will be 35 years old next season, it is no surprise the Eagles want to keep him for even longer.

He has surpassed the elevated expectations that were put in place when the NFC East team selected him with the No. 4 overall pick of the 2013 NFL draft and has been a franchise cornerstone over his 12 seasons.

Johnson's resume includes two Super Bowl championships, two First-Team All-Pro selections and six Pro Bowl nods. He also hasn't appeared to slow any with age, as he is coming off a third straight Pro Bowl selection.

The Oklahoma product appeared in 15 regular-season games and then all four playoff games during the 2024 campaign and helped open holes for Saquon Barkley while protecting Jalen Hurts.

Pro Football Focus gave him an impressive overall player grade of 85.4 for his efforts, underscoring how important he is for the entire offense to operate as planned.

Regardless of his performance over the rest of his contract, he will forever be an Eagles legend for being so dominant for so long and helping bring them two Super Bowl rings. It's not often an offensive lineman is one of the faces of the franchise, but that is certainly the case with Johnson and Philadelphia.

And there is no reason to think he won't continue to perform at a high level as he plays out the rest of his deal with the only NFL team he has ever known.
