December 18, 2025 at 4:15p – Lane Johnson and Jalen Carter are OUT Saturday at Washington

There was hope all week that Lane Johnson would practice and a slimmer, but real chance that Jalen Carter would be right behind him. It didn’t happen for either. Johnson is still nursing a Lisfranc sprain while Carter had a “procedure” done on both shoulders. We don’t know exactly what that procedure was, but the rumor is that he went through PRP injections to improve healing in the area which has bothered him all year. Johnson has missed the last 4 weeks while Carter has been out the last two (and a feast of bad offensive linemen). The goal is for both to come back next week for the trip up to Buffalo.

For anyone clamoring for both to return, I get it. We are notoriously bad without Lane in the lineup and Carter is simply a force of nature. The team hasn’t exactly been lighting the world on fire without them. With our Magic Number down to 1 with 3 games to go, there is simply no reason to rush either of them. We are virtually locked into the 3 seed and playing both against a bad (and dirty) Washington team is not necessary. Ideally, both play against the Bills then take the final week of the season off so they are rested and ready for the playoffs.

December 18 at 2:30p – PFO News and Rumors Pages are Live

I started with the Phillies News and Rumors page for the offseason and it has gone pretty well. I want these to be easily accessible and updateable spots for talking about more minor transactions and newsworthy rumors when a full article would either be premature or simply make the homepage more crowded. Going live for the Sixers and Flyers too.
