During the preseason, it became obvious that the Eagles’ offensive line depth was lacking, especially at tackle behind Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson. This is a move that should really help. It was looking like some combination of Matt Pryor and/or Kendall Lamm would handle swing tackle duties, but both struggled at tackle this preseason.

In need of better OL depth, the Eagles bring back a former swing lineman who was with them for the past two seasons.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are shipping veteran offensive tackle Fred Johnson back to the Philadelphia Eagles. NFL insider Adam Schefter dropped the news Sunday evening that the Jags – who signed Johnson from the Eagles this offseason to a 1-year $1.33 million deal – are trading him back to Philly for a 2026 seventh-round pick.
