Eagles Seek Repeat as Veteran Star Mulls Retirement
15 Aug
Summary
- Eagles have nearly identical offense, improved defense
- Veteran OL Lane Johnson considering retirement if they win
- Rookie Jihaad Campbell compared to Micah Parsons

As of August 15th, 2025, the Philadelphia Eagles are gearing up to defend their Super Bowl championship from the previous season. The team is returning with virtually the same high-powered offense, and their defense has arguably improved through key offseason additions.
The Eagles' veteran offensive lineman Lane Johnson has hinted that he may retire if the team manages to win back-to-back Super Bowls. Johnson, who has been a stalwart for the Eagles over the past 12 seasons, believes that winning it all again could be the perfect "last hurrah" for his illustrious career.
On the defensive side, the Eagles had to part ways with standouts like Josh Sweat and Milton Williams, but they've brought in promising young talents like Jihaad Campbell, who has been drawing comparisons to star linebacker Micah Parsons throughout training camp. The team has also added other impactful pass rushers in Josh Uche and Azeez Ojulari, bolstering their defensive unit.
Despite the loss of CJ Gardner-Johnson in the secondary, the Eagles are confident that Andrew Mukuba, a recent addition, can step up and make an immediate impact. The overall vibe around the team is one of excitement and optimism as they gear up for the challenge of defending their title.
