Eagles make surprising changes to starting offensive line ahead of Week 13
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles are set to feature a different starting offensive line after two unexpected changes. Lane Johnson has decided to retire midseason after playing only three games this year, concluding a 14-year career with several Pro Bowl selections. Rooky Markel Bell will take over at right tackle. Additionally, Cam Jurgens has been traded to the Baltimore Ravens, leading to rookie Willie Lampkin stepping in at left guard. The Eagles may also see the return of Landon Dickerson, who is recovering from a knee injury, by Week 13 when they face the Arizona Cardinals.
