Scouting Report: Strengths
- Gives great effort in run support, sticking his nose in as a tackler, and should be able to contribute as a special teamer covering kicks.
- Lewis has the straight-line speed to recover. His ball skills are tremendous, with good hands and the potential to take it to the house any time Lewis gets his hands on the ball.
- Flashes good ball skills. He has the fluidity and change-of-direction ability to mirror quicker receivers underneath.
- Has the fluidity, speed and quick feet to come down and defend slot receivers in man coverage. Lewis also does a nice job breaking down in space as a tackler after the catch.
- Fits best in a zone system at the next level due to size and ability to close to the ball.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Tends to play conservatively and give too much cushion when playing off.
- Gets sloppy with his backpedal when playing off-man and seems to lack the instincts to close on the ball.
- Better in press coverage than in off coverage, when Lewis can look shaky and unsure when transitioning out of his backpedal. He’ll give up throws underneath.
- The majority of the time last season, he was able to physically overwhelm opposing receivers early in the down, a scenario that won’t play out as often against NFL receivers.
