Lane Johnson and Reed Blankenship were among the players injured in a loss to the Jets when the Eagles had already entered the game missing a few key players.
Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson limps down the sideline during the first quarter of the game against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on Sunday, October 15, 2023.
Lining up next to fellow backup Sua Opeta, who is filling in for injured starter Cam Jurgens at right guard, Driscoll allowed a pivotal pressure to Jets’ edge rusher Jermaine Johnson in the third quarter. Johnson beat Driscoll upfield and then cut back before he could recover, breaking the pocket to hit Hurts’ arm and causing the quarterback’s second interception.
Both Sirianni and Kelce pointed out that Driscoll has experience starting in Johnson’s place and has played well doing so in the past. The 26-year-old has 16 starts in his four-year career, including three last season in which the Eagles went 2-1. Driscoll played two games at right tackle and played nearly two full games at left tackle in place of Jordan Mailata last year.
As significant as Johnson’s potential absence is — the Eagles are 84-48-1 in games Johnson has played and 13-22 when he has missed games — they are even more depleted in the secondary through six games.
