Lane Johnson told me that he's feeling good and he feels like he will be ready for this Sunday's game against the 49ers. He said he popped some scar tissue in his groin from last year, which is why he was not active against the Bills.

The 33-year-old Johnson has played all 11 of his NFL seasons for the Eagles.
