9 seasons, 8 in Dallas — a slot/nickel mainstay whose 2024 line (71 combined, 8 PDs, INT) was a career peak before leaving for Jacksonville.

Lewis's 2024 was his career-best year — 71 combined tackles, 8 PDs, 1 FF, plus a sack and 2 QB hits as a slot blitzer. That platform season got him paid in free agency.
The 2025 Jacksonville debut tells you what they bought: 10 PDs and 5 TFL already — he's playing the same hyper-active slot role, just in teal. The 2017 rookie 10-PD year and the 2021 11-PD year (a Pro Bowl-buzz season) bracket a career profile that's been quietly elite at the slot for most of a decade.

64 career PDs across 9 seasons — a Pro Bowl-bar coverage volume from the slot.
RareLewis's career PD totals across 9 seasons: 51 + 1 + 6 + 2 + 11 + 1 + 5 + 8 + 10 = 64 career PDs — that's elite slot-corner volume. The two double-digit PD years (10 in 2017, 10 in 2025, 11 in 2021) bracket a career where his coverage activity has been remarkably steady when healthy.
The 2022 dip (1 PD all season) is the outlier — a year where the Cowboys' usage moved him off the field in favor of younger options before he climbed back to a full-time role in 2023.
Career splash: 6 forced fumbles, with 3 of them in 2023 alone — most by any DB that season.

In 2023 Lewis recorded 3 forced fumbles and 2 fumble recoveries — a takeaway-machine year that flew under the national radar because Dallas had Diggs and Bland racking up INTs.
Career total: 5 FF and 10 FR — the slot corner version of a havoc profile. Most of these come on inside zone tackles where he punches the ball through to a linebacker.
2025: first season outside Dallas — 10 PDs and 5 TFL already, on pace to set a career-high in both.

The 2025 Jaguars line shows a slot corner the new staff is using more aggressively in run support than Dallas ever did: 5 TFL in 18 weeks is already a career high, and 10 PDs ties him for the slot-corner lead on a wholesale-rebuilt JAX defense.
The combined tackle count (38) is on the lower end — that's because he's playing fewer total snaps in a healthier secondary rotation, not because he's losing reps to coverage receivers.
2018 was the lost season: 13 combined tackles, 1 PD, 2 fumble recoveries — and zero starts in a contract year.
AnomalyIn 2018, Lewis went from a rookie season with 51 combined tackles and 10 PDs straight into a 13-tackle/1-PD sophomore year. He was buried on a Cowboys depth chart that had Chido Awuzie and Anthony Brown ahead of him at slot, and the staff didn't trust the rotation.
The rebound in 2019 (50 combined, 6 PDs) and the breakout in 2020-2021 made 2018 look like a deployment quirk rather than a player issue. Every contract he's signed since has paid him as a starter — and he's earned it.
