Lane Johnson Ruled Out For Eagles With Concussion

  • Eagles

The Eagles will be without right tackle Lane Johnson for the remainder of Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints, as the two-time All-Pro has been ruled out with a concussion. 

Johnson departed the game in the second quarter, with FOX's Pam Oliver noting that the 34-year-old "had to be guided into the medical tent" after throwing up on the sideline when he came out of the game. 

It goes without saying that it's a massive loss to have a possible future Hall of Famer depart today's game, and this may very well be something that keeps Johnson from playing in Week 4 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 

Wide receiver/punt returner Britain Covey has also been ruled out for the rest of the game with a shoulder injury.
