Carson Wentz has faced unusual pressure this offseason, and his trusted offensive tackle is already earning a hefty paycheck.

Lane Johnson recently stuffed Donovan McNabb over critiques the Philadelphia Eagles legend levied against Wentz, as the Birds begin preparing for a telling season.

“I think, personally, if he can’t get out of the second round in the next two, maybe three, years, but really two years, to be honest with you,” McNabb recently told CBS Sports Radio host Zach Gelb. “If he can’t get out of the second round, they should look to possibly draft another quarterback because you just don’t know about his durability. They put so much of their eggs into their basket with Carson Wentz, and he’s got to prove that in the next two years.”

That the Eagles did, opting to let the only Super Bowl-winning quarterback in franchise history, Nick Foles, take his talents to Jacksonville over the winter.

The endlessly injured Wentz is rebounding from a back ailment that kept him out of action the final stretch of last season, and despite showcasing stardom while on the field, the 26-year-old has been limited to under 15 games the last two seasons and zero playoff play.

Johnson, who only a few months earlier slammed a controversial report targeting his quarterback, went right at McNabb for the knockout blow.

“@donovanjmcnabb 🐍 🐍 🐍 🐍 🐍 🐍…and you wonder why nobody respects you when you come back!!!!” he tweeted, before expanding on his comments to Philly radio station 94.1 WIP.

“This is what I meant — every training camp we have all of these ex-players come and shake our hands, wish us good luck. Then, they just go out and just talk hate. I feel there is a lot of envy, jealousy, and I see a lot of fakery,” Johnson said. “You would think the best quarterback in franchise history would try to build up a young man that looks up to him instead of always criticizing him, critiquing him and wishing he would fail so he could be the missing link and feel better himself.”

McNabb, who led the Eagles to five NFC Championship games and one Super Bowl appearance in 2004, then slung a subtweet Johnson’s way.

“Deal with it 😂😂😂😂,” McNabb wrote, alongside a “Winning” GIF, late Sunday.

He then tried to clarify his comments in a thread of tweets Monday afternoon.

“For those of you who misread, didn’t understand, were confused or just didn’t like my comments let me clarify it for you. Let me start by saying there’s no beef,riff or ill-will toward [Carson Wentz] or the @Eagles. My comments were strictly based off of experience and understanding. Of how The Business of football works. You are consistently evaluated everyday, every game and if you are reliable and or healthy enough to play. I know at times as players and fans it can be confusing to move on from a beloved player but due to the business of health. And trust tough decisions are usually made. Maybe people just didn’t like it because it’s coming from me or I answered a question from one of the talents on the radio the way you didn’t agree with. If that’s how you feel I’m sorry you feel that way. It’s the nature of the game.”

While Wentz will try to put the criticism behind him, McNabb seemingly aims to get his second career back on track. McNabb had been largely on the sidelines since his ESPN firing last January stemming from sexual harassment allegations during his time at NFL Network.

Earlier this month, he tweeted from an NBC news affiliate studio, “Feels so good to be back doing what you love. God is good 🙏🏽🙏🏽. Thanks @12newscoop.”
