Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson will not require surgery for his Lis Franc foot injury, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. The Eagles did not place Johnson on injured reserve on Saturday. The initial prognosis was 4-6 weeks, which would have likely kept Johnson out until the postseason. According to McLane, Johnson will have X-rays after the swelling subsides in his right foot, but Johnson might miss only three games. The Eagles play the Cowboys, Bears and Chargers in the next three games. Fred Johnson will start in Lane Johnson’s absence. The Eagles are 120-62-1 in games Lane Johnson has played and 15-24 in games he has not, including the playoffs, since he joined them as a first-round pick in 2013.

Dallas Cowboys Make Two Trades at Trade Deadline to Bolster Defense
The Dallas Cowboys recently made significant moves to bolster their roster ahead of the upcoming seasons.
According to reports from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero, and Mike Garafolo, the Cowboys acquired Williams in a trade that involved multiple assets. Dallas sent a 2026 second-round pick, a 2027 first-round pick, and defensive tackle Mazi Smith to complete the deal.
An interesting detail in this trade is that New York will receive the higher of the Cowboys’ two first-round picks in 2027. This is possible because Dallas holds both its own and Green Bay’s first-round selections, thanks to the Micah Parsons trade earlier this year.
In a separate transaction, the Cowboys also acquired linebacker Logan Wilson from the Bengals. For Wilson, Dallas traded away a 2026 seventh-round draft pick.
These moves highlight the Cowboys’ commitment to strengthening their defense and positioning themselves for sustained success in the coming years.
