Next the Philadelphia Eagles lost another major player on their offensive line after trading away center, Cam Jurgens, yesterday to the Baltimore Ravens.

    Hour 1: How much trouble are the Eagles in without Lane Johnson?

    10/07/2026 | 48 mins.
    First Take begins as the Philadelphia Eagles received breaking news yesterday as Lane Johnson decided to retire. Johnson has been a staple of the Eagles offense since 2013. Where does Philly look now to help out their offensive line on the field and in the locker room? Next Dak Prescott said he does not regret sharing the team's G.O.T.I mantra this past offseason. While the Cowboys offense has certainly been good, the greatest might be a stretch. Could Dak's comments come back to bite the Cowboys at the end of the season?
