UPDATE: It Looks Like Lane Johnson Will Be Suspended 10 Games for PED Use
OK so there’s where the report originated. Credit to Darren DeGaetano, whose reporting track record is spotty at best, he seems to have nailed this one. Both Les Bowen and Jimmy Kempski report that they have received no response from Johnson’s agent, or the team. And Howard Eskin says it’s true:
The report is correct #Eagles RT Lane Johnson suspended 10 games for PED use. @FOX29philly @SportsRadioWIP

If you’ll recall, Lane Johnson, who hates you, the fan, was suspended for four games before the start of the 2014 season for PEDs. I hate lane Johnson, he’s a spineless jellyfish, and a fraud.
UPDATE: Odd development here:
Welp, texting with Lane Johnson, who just said he was asleep and "nothing is going on." I am puzzled.

UPDATE 2: Lane Johnson also denied the report to Matt Lombardo and Jeff McLane. This might explain why it wasn’t announced yet– because no one had told Lane. Or, it’s not true.
UPDATE 3: Strange indeed:
RE Lane Johnson, I can confirm that several people with the Eagles who normally would know about something like this say they do not. So, ?!
