Eagles beat Lions 16-9 in lackluster offensive game

PHILADELPHIA -- Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson suffered a Lisfranc injury during Sunday night's 16-9 victory over the Detroit Lions, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday.

It is not expected to be a season-ending injury to his foot, but he could be headed to injured reserve, the sources told Schefter.

A Lisfranc injury is described as "anything that damages the Lisfranc joint at the top of your foot," according to the Cleveland Clinic, which notes that severe injuries could require surgery.

Johnson exited in the first quarter following a Saquon Barkley run on 3rd-and-short that got stuffed. Johnson walked slowly indoors after a brief trip to the medical tent.

He was replaced in the lineup by Fred Johnson. The team did not provide an update after the game.

Lane Johnson, 35, has dealt with his share of injuries this season. He missed a good portion of last week's game against the Green Bay Packers because of a left ankle injury before returning late.

He was in and out of the lineup earlier in the year because of a stinger.

Johnson, a two-time first team All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler, entered the game with a 0.0 knockdown percentage (no sacks or QB hits allowed).
