Lane Johnson of the Philadelphia Eagles has cemented his legacy as one of the NFL’s premier offensive linemen.
Through 12 seasons, his track record speaks for itself, and this year proved no different as he continued to dominate.
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni has consistently dubbed him football’s finest offensive tackle, making his recent second-team All-Pro selection somewhat underwhelming given his impact.
The right tackle’s frustration with the All-Pro voting became evident with an interesting discovery at Johnson’s locker.
“Did speak to Lane Johnson briefly before he left and can confirm that the sign at his locker stall indicates he wasn’t happy with All-Pro voting,” Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote on X.

Detroit Lions tackle Penei Sewell earned first-team All-Pro honors ahead of Johnson, sparking debate across the league.
While Sewell’s talent is undeniable, Johnson’s superiority shows in the numbers that were displayed at his locker.
He outperforms Sewell in every critical metric used to evaluate offensive line excellence.
Looking at the statistics, Johnson holds clear advantages in crucial areas, from sacks allowed and pressures to team rushing yards.
His career highlights include two previous first-team All-Pro selections and three second-team honors.
The broader picture shows both players anchoring successful teams. Sewell’s Lions posted an impressive 15-2 record to claim the NFC’s top seed, while Johnson’s Eagles finished 14-3 to lock up the No. 2 spot.
