Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson isn’t happy with being named second-team All-Pro.

Jeff McLane from the Philadelphia Inquiryr shared that Johnson posted a graphic comparing his stats to Detroit Lions tackle Penei Sewell after Sewell earned first-team honors over the Eagles’ starter on Friday.

Johnson later confirmed this McLane that he posted the comparison to show he was “unhappy with the All-Pro vote.”

Earlier in the day, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni called Johnson “the best offensive lineman in the world.”

Nick Sirianni on Lane Johnson:
“He is the best offensive player in the world. I have no doubt about that.”

The stat comparison shows several numbers that put Johnson in a better light, including sacks allowed, pressures allowed and team rushing yards.

Johnson was named first-team All-Pro twice and second-team All-Pro three times in his career. The last time he was named first-team All-Pro was in 2022. This was Sewell’s second consecutive first-team selection.

Sewell’s Lions went 15-2 and secured first place in the NFC. Johnson’s Eagles were also quite successful, going 14-3 and earning second place in the conference. The two teams could be on a collision course when they meet in the NFC Championship Game.

For now, Johnson will try to vent his frustrations in the Wild Card round when the Eagles host the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
