Lane Johnson is out 4-6 weeks with a Lisfranc injury that took him out of Sunday night’s win against the Detroit Lions.

According to Pro Football Reference, Johnson has only played 450 snaps this season, which amounts to 73.9% of the offensive totals. He’s started all 10 games but had to come out...
