Eagles' Lane Johnson Ruled Out For Sunday Against Panthers
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Eagles officially ruled out offensive tackle Lane Johnson for Sunday against the Panthers as he continues to deal with a personal matter, but they are getting a key piece of their offensive line back.
Starting tackle Jordan Mailata will play after missing time with a knee sprain.
