Johnson has been a dominant force on the field, not allowing a sack or quarterback hit in over two years, and was recognized with an All-Pro campaign in 2022.
He has started in 127 games for the Eagles since being drafted as the fourth overall pick in 2013, helping the team reach Super Bowl LVII despite suffering a torn abductor late in the 2022 season.
The Eagles have also recently re-signed veteran center Jason Kelce, maintaining continuity on one of the league's best offensive lines.
