PHILADELPHIA — Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson was ruled out of Sunday night’s game against the Detroit Lions because of a foot injury.
Johnson exited in the first quarter following a Saquon Barkley run on 3rd-and-short that got stuffed. Johnson walked slowly indoors after a brief trip to the medical tent.
He was replaced in the lineup by Fred Johnson.
Lane Johnson, 35, has dealt with his share of injuries this season. He missed a good portion of last week’s game against the Green Bay Packers because of a left ankle injury before returning to the game late. He was in and out of the lineup earlier in the year because of a stinger.
Johnson, a five-time All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler, entered the game with a 0.0 knockdown percentage (no sacks or QB hits allowed).
