The Philadelphia Eagles continue to build their roster just days after winning the 2025 Super Bowl with a dominant victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. They have now added a former backup from the Miami Dolphins to their offense, led by star quarterback Jalen Hurts, for the 2025 NFL season.
Hurts and the Eagles aim to keep assembling a team capable of contending for another Super Bowl after ending the Chiefs’ hopes for a three-peat. Head coach Nick Sirianni is crafting a well-rounded roster, addressing gaps that have emerged in the offseason.
In this case, the Eagles have decided to sign an offensive player formerly of the Dolphins to replace Fred Johnson, who became a free agent after the 2024 season. Last week, the 27-year-old offensive tackle signed a one-year contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Hurts’ new teammate on the Eagles
The new player joining Hurts’ Eagles is none other than offensive tackle Kendall Lamm, who arrives as a free agent on a one-year contract, according to Peter Schrager of NFL Media. The 32-year-old veteran will aim to secure a spot following Johnson’s departure.
Kendall Lamm, the new player of the Eagles
Lamm, who left the Dolphins, underwent back surgery in January 2025. A herniated disc on his left side was pressing on a nerve, causing numbness in that area, which led to his placement on the injured reserve list and the need for surgical intervention.

Lamm’s performance in the 2024 NFL season
The Eagles are curious to see how their new offensive addition will perform. Before his injury during the 2024 NFL season, Lamm played in 15 games (starting in seven) and participated in 511 offensive snaps and 63 special teams plays.
