Summary

“I don’t mind being the Robin to Batman, I love that role.” Lane Johnson All Pro Offensive Lineman x Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl Champion  As our NFL training camp tour continues, we make a stop to catch up with the reigning Super Bowl Champion, Philadelphia Eagles and the man who anchored the team- All Pro Lane Johnson. On this episode of The Pivot Podcast, Ryan, Channing and Fred sit down with the superstar offensive tackle, as the Eagles gear up for another season and a pressure-filled training camp. Lane reflects on the highs and lows of his championship journey, the mental and physical preparation that keeps him at the top of his game, and what it takes to stay hungry after reaching the pinnacle of success. He gives personal perspective and locker room insight about his quarterback Jalen Hurts, what makes him a winner and someone who leads by the work he puts in not the words he speaks. Lane describes the moment he found out his team landed Saquon Barkley and how his biggest high on the field is run-first offense and blocking for his running back. With candid insights into the grind of an NFL season, Lane opens up about his battles with injury, mental health struggles, the leadership required in the locker room, and the family-like bond he shares with his teammates. From his early days in the league to winning his first Super Bowl and navigating the pressures that come with being a key player on a constant contender, Lane’s perspective is as real as it gets. Tap in as we talk all things football, the sacrifices behind the scenes, and the mindset of a champion who's ready to do it all over again. This episode is packed with raw emotion, motivation, and a glimpse into the mind of one of the NFL’s most dominant forces. Tune in now to hear Lane Johnson’s story—his journey, his triumphs, and what drives him to be the best out on the field and the respect he's earned from the entire league.
