Eagles' Lane Johnson awaiting outcome of Tuesday's PED appeal

LANE JOHNSON'S appeal on his pending 10-game performance-enhancing drug suspension was scheduled to be heard Tuesday morning in New York.

If precedent holds, no announcement will be made for a week or so, and Johnson will be able to start at right tackle this Sunday in Detroit. The Eagles practiced with Johnson in his usual spot on Monday, when they returned from their bye week, players said.

When the suspension - which could be reduced on appeal - begins, the plan is for left guard Allen Barbre to move to right tackle, and for Stefen Wisniewski to replace Barbre.
