The Philadelphia Eagles have restructured the contract of offensive lineman Lane Johnson, creating $8.2 million in cap space in the process, according to Field Yates of ESPN.

The Eagles converted $10.045 million of Johnson's base salary into a signing bonus, meaning he will now make a base salary of $805,000 next season.

Johnson, who played his collegiate football at the University of Oklahoma, was originally selected by Philadelphia with the fourth overall pick of the 2013 NFL Draft.

He started all 16 games at right tackle during his rookie campaign and has been a mainstay along the Eagles' offensive line ever since.

The 28-year-old has made back-to-back Pro Bowl appearances, marking the first two trips to the Pro Bowl of his career. Johnson also earned a first-team All-Pro selection in 2017.

Outside of the 2016 campaign in which Johnson played in just six games, Johnson has remained mostly healthy throughout his six-year tenure with the Eagles, missing just two games the last two seasons.

Philadelphia is coming off a 2018 campaign in which it won nine games and managed to sneak into the playoffs during the final week of the regular season.

The Eagles then went on to upset the Chicago Bears in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs before falling to the New Orleans Saints in the Divisional Round the following week.

Of course, in the previous season, Philly won the first Super Bowl title in the history of its franchise, as Nick Foles stepped in for the injured Carson Wentz and led the Eagles to glory.
