WHAT HAPPENED
All-Pro offensive lineman Lane Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles said at a June 9 training‑camp news conference that his 14th NFL season will "probably" be his last. The 36‑year‑old, a 2013 first‑round pick, made the statement after missing four days of camp for personal reasons.
Johnson, who earned first‑team All‑Pro honors in 2017 and 2022 and second‑team selections in 2021, 2023 and 2024, explained that his most recent leave involved caring for his parents and that his priorities have begun to shift toward life outside football. He added, "I'm looking potentially this is probably going to be my last year," after Saturday’s practice. According to the Associated Press, Johnson has previously taken a season‑long break in 2021 to battle anxiety and depression, a story he now shares at local mental‑health clinics.
Johnson’s potential retirement marks the end of a 14‑year career with the Eagles, during which he has been a consistent starter and a key player on the team’s offensive line.
- Johnson indicates 2026 may be his final NFL season.
- He missed four training‑camp days for personal/family reasons and has returned to practice.
- His career includes multiple All‑Pro selections and a 2021 mental‑health leave.
