The Philadelphia Eagles are bringing back veteran offensive tackle Fred Johnson, NFL Network and The Athletic reported Tuesday.

Johnson will sign a one-year deal, according to NFL Network.


Johnson has appeared in every game for each of the past three seasons with Philadelphia, and he made six starts in 2024 and eight in 2025 as the starting O-line dealt with injuries.

Though he actually left the Eagles in 2025 and signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Johnson was traded back to the Eagles in August.

The 28-year-old began his career with the Cincinnati Bengals (2019-21) and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2022).
