Apparently he led the BigTen in quarterback hits. Eagles fans surely remember Mike Mamula famously accumulating lots of “hurries” (but few sacks). Last year, Lewis was credited with only 1.5 sacks but did have 8 TFL and 55 total tackles. I’ve seen him listed on NFL draft boards as an Edge but well down the list. Seems like the kind of guy who catches on with an NFL team as an UDFA. But of course he may may be poised to have a monster season as the D looks to be a real strength as a group.
