The Jets activated Lewis (undisclosed) from the non-football injury list Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Despite coming off the NFI list, coach Adam Gase said that Lewis is unlikely to be active for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Patriots. With that in mind, Pat Elflein looks primed for another start at left guard.

Lewis (undisclosed) was designated to return from the non-football injury list Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
It's still unclear what kept Lewis away from the team for the past three weeks, but he's eligible to return to practice and could play in Sunday's game against the Patriots. If he's activated, Lewis likely will start at left guard in the season finale.

The Jets will place Lewis (undisclosed) on the non-football injury list, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lewis will have to spend at least three weeks on the NFI list before being eligible to return. He also missed last weekend's loss to the Dolphins for undisclosed reasons unrelated to injury. In his absence, Pat Elflein (shoulder) will be the favorite to start at left guard as long as he's cleared to play.

Coach Adam Gase said Friday that Lewis (undisclosed) will miss a second straight game for reasons unrelated to injury, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
EDGE Analysis
Gase said the reason for Lewis' absence is "an organizational decision" and that the guard isn't in danger of being fined or losing his roster spot, per Vacchiano. Pat Elflein (shoulder) will be the favorite to replace Lewis at left guard as long as he's cleared to play against the Raiders on Sunday.
