4 days ago 2

Philadelphia is nearly unbeatable with Lane Johnson in the lineup, and the star right tackle was a participant on Wednesday, the first time since missing six games with a Lisfranc injury. Johnson and Nakobe Dean were among the key Eagles on the NovaCare Center practice fields. Johnson was back at NovaCare Complex as a non-participant on Friday, but he was in uniform, and it was good news and buildup for a team looking to get their all-world right tackle back in the lineup for the playoffs.

Johnson (foot), Jalen Carter (hip), linebacker Nakobe Dean (hamstring), tight end Dallas Goedert (knee), Marcus Epps (concussion), and outside linebacker Jaelan Phillips (ankle) all missed the Eagles' season finale, but were at practice on Wednesday.

In the Week 18 season finale, Johnson missed his sixth straight game with a Lisfranc sprain in his foot despite initial thoughts that he'd return for Week 15.

For San Francisco, Trent Williams (hamstring), WR Ricky Pearsall (knee), LB Dee Winters (ankle), and pass rusher Keion White (hamstring) were all out on Wednesday. Head coach Kyle Shanahan indicated that there's no guarantee that Williams will practice on Thursday.
