A two-time first-team All-Big Ten honoree at Ohio State, Lewis has spent his entire NFL career with the Colts, who drafted him with the final pick of the second round of the 2018 NFL draft. While he’s battled injuries for much of his NFL career, he’s coming off of his most productive season as a pro in 2023, when he recorded 25 total tackles with nine tackles for loss, four sacks, three pass breakups and 13 quarterback hits, all career-highs.
