He endured injuries, yet he made the most of his college career. Lewis, a native of Washington, D.C., accomplished two Southeastern Conference Championship rings (2016, 2018) and a CFP National Championship ring. He was selected in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Rams. Lewis got a Super Bowl ring with the Rams during his time from 2020 to 2022. He bounced to the Chicago Bears and the New Orleans Saints, but nothing became of the moments for him.

Lewis expressed his frustration on Twitter about not having a job in the league now.

He recently deleted the tweet, but Tide fans hope he gets a new opportunity with a team.
