The 2024 NFL regular season has concluded, igniting the awards season and stirring controversies among players and teams. Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson expressed displeasure after being passed over for the first-team All-Pro selection, losing out again to Detroit Lions' Penei Sewell. An 'All-Pro Comparison' sign was found at Johnson's locker, highlighting statistical disparities that hinted at the organization’s frustration with the voting process.
In a matchup analysis conducted by CBS Sports, Johnson's performance metrics were compared with Sewell's, revealing some discrepancies, yet largely confirming the accuracy of Johnson's feelings. While Sewell has the advantage in PFF grades for run-blocking and overall offensive performance, Johnson outperformed Sewell in pass-blocking efficiency.
