Rookie Signed in June Sparks Lane Johnson’s Fury Over Attitude and Performance – Despite Being an NFL Legacy
The Philadelphia Eagles just had one of their hottest practices yet – and not because of the weather. Myles Hinton, a rookie signed in June after being drafted in the 6th round of the 2025 NFL Draft, triggered a rare outburst from veteran Lane Johnson after a series of mistakes and what sources describe as a poor attitude.
According to multiple insiders at training camp, Hinton repeatedly blew his assignments during team drills. When coaches and veterans attempted to correct him, he appeared disengaged and dismissive. Lane Johnson – a longtime leader who rarely loses his temper – had enough.
“Who do you think you are? No one here cares who your father is. If you want a spot on this team, earn it with your work,” Lane reportedly yelled across the field.
Myles Hinton isn't just any rookie. He’s the son of Chris Hinton, a former Pro Bowl offensive lineman with seven All-Star appearances. His family is as NFL-blooded as they come. But that pedigree isn’t helping him now.
One Eagles veteran added bluntly:
“Your last name might open the door – but it won’t keep it open.”
The Eagles had high hopes for Myles, envisioning him as a developmental piece on the offensive line, learning behind leaders like Lane Johnson. But just a few weeks into camp, he’s left an impression for all the wrong reasons – sloppy execution, lack of focus, and an inflated sense of entitlement.
In a locker room where culture matters as much as talent, this incident could be a turning point. If Hinton doesn’t adjust quickly, NFL history may remember him not as a rising lineman – but simply as “Chris Hinton’s son.”
