The Eagles have restructured the contracts of Derek Barnett and Lane Johnson, according to a source familiar with their thinking.
The moves free up cap $ this year, which can pushed into ‘22. Believed to be part of overall cap management, not for one specific purpose/player.

The Eagles are just five weeks from the start of the regular season and general manager Howie Roseman has started adjusting the books for a big move or supreme versatility during the 2022 NFL free agent period.
Per Tim McManus, the Eagles have restructured the deal of right tackle Lane Johnson, who’s on the books for $9 million in base salary this season, with a cap hit of $17.8 million.
Johnson has one year of guaranteed money left on his deal.
