The Philadelphia Eagles reworked offensive tackle Lane Johnson's contract, extending him through 2027 while also adding $8 million in salary and $30 million in guarantees over the next two seasons, his agent told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Johnson will now rack in $48 million over the next two years with $40 million guaranteed, Schefter adds. The Eagles confirmed Johnson's one-year extension through 2027 but didn't reveal financial terms.

The 34-year-old had one season remaining on his previous deal.

A six-time Pro Bowler and two-time First-Team All-Pro, Johnson has been the anchor of the Eagles' offensive line since his rookie season in 2013. He's been a full-time starter since being selected fourth overall and has totalled 158 starts during his 12-year tenure.

Johnson has also collected two Super Bowl championships as a member of the Eagles, the most recent coming in February. His play was a major factor in Philadelphia's success on the ground last season as the unit ranked second in the NFL in rushing yards per game.
