Tommylee Lewis is getting another chance at making the Saints roster. The wide receiver signed a reserve/future contract with New Orleans after spending time in Detroit a year ago. Lewis first came into the NFL in 2016 out of Northern Illinois and spent 3 seasons in Black & Gold making 20 catches for 252 yards and 2 touchdowns. He's best known for getting mugged in the Superdome toward the end of the NFC Championship against the Rams in 2019. That moment helped lead to the league tweaking offensive/defensive pass interference rules.

January 20, 2020 The 27 year old was also selected by the Dallas Renegades in the fifth round of the XFL Draft. That new league kicks off on February 8th, so football isn’t too far away.
