Overview
- Johnson left Sunday’s win over the Rams in the first quarter with a stinger sustained on the Eagles’ initial 'tush push' and did not return.
- He took part in Wednesday’s session at the NovaCare Complex in some capacity, according to reporter Tim McManus.
- Johnson expects to be available for the Week 4 game at the Buccaneers, per reporting attributed to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
- Philadelphia views his presence as pivotal against Tampa Bay’s blitz-heavy front, and PFF credits him with zero sacks and zero QB hits allowed on 62 pass-blocking snaps this season.
- The episode is the first notable injury tied to the Eagles’ execution of the play, which narrowly escaped an offseason ban and continues to face league and public skepticism.
