Lewis re-signed with the Cowboys on a one-year contract Thursday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis officially became a free agent Wednesday, but it took less than 24 hours for the Michigan product to re-up with his old team. Selected in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft, Lewis has spent all seven seasons of his career with Dallas and is now set to remain with the Cowboys for at least an eighth season. The 28-year-old bounced back in 2023 from an injury-shortened 2022 campaign due to a Lisfranc injury to record 52 tackles (36 solo), five pass breakups, one interception, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 16 regular-season games.

Lewis recorded 52 tackles (36 solo), five pass breakups, one interception, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 16 regular-season games with the Cowboys in 2023.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis missed Week 1 after sitting out all of training camp and the preseason while recovering from a Lisfranc injury, but he then appeared in all remaining 16 regular-season games for Dallas, operating as the backup to DaRon Bland and Stephon Gilmore. Now a pending unrestricted free agent, Lewis will likely have to search for a similar backup role elsewhere in the league.

Lewis finished with six tackles (three solo) and an interception in Saturday's 20-19 win over the Lions.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis got his first interception of the year at the beginning of the second quarter on a Jared Goff pass intended for David Montgomery. He now joins DaRon Bland, Stephon Gilmore and Trevon Diggs as the Dallas corners with an INT this season. As the backup to Bland and Gilmore, Lewis is up to 49 tackles (33 solo), one interception, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over 15 games this season.

Lewis was activated from the PUP list Tuesday, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' website reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran cornerback will be on the roster for Week 1, but it's not yet clear just how close Lewis is to being ready for game action after missing all of training camp and the preseason while completing his recovery from a Lisfranc injury. Once he's able to suit up, he'll primarily compete with DaRon Bland for snaps as the slot cornerback.

Lewis (foot) might avoid the PUP list to begin the regular season, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The slot cornerback suffered a Lisfranc injury in Week 7 last year and missed the rest of the season, but he's made good progress in his recovery and appears ready to begin practicing. If Lewis does end up on the PUP list when Dallas sets its initial 53-man roster, he would be required to miss the first four games of the season. The 27-year-old may not be guaranteed a significant role when he does return, however, as DaRon Bland emerged as a ballhawk in Lewis' absence last season and the Cowboys signed Stephon Gilmore in the offseason to bolster their secondary.

Lewis (foot) was placed on the active/PUP list Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis closed the 2022 season on IR due to a Lisfranc injury, and it was reported in June by Todd Archer of ESPN.com that he would begin camp on the PUP list, although he had already begun running. So, the move doesn't come as a surprise. He'll be able to compete once he passes a physical.

Cowboys CEO Stephen Jones said Monday that Lewis will open training camp on the PUP list, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis ended 2022 on injured reserve with a Lisfranc injury and has been trying to get back to full strength this offseason, but it sounds like he'll be unavailable to start the 2023 campaign. If the 2017 third-round pick is placed on the PUP list, he'll be forced to miss at least the first six games of the season.

Lewis (foot) has ditched the walking boot and has started running, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis is still recovering from the Lisfranc injury that he sustained in October, but he appears to be recovering well. He was able to progress out of a walking boot in March and the cornerback is trying to make it back to practice before players get placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list.

Dallas placed Lewis (foot) on its injured reserve list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis suffered a season-ending Lisfranc injury during Sunday's win versus Detroit, and he's now officially on the Cowboys' injured reserve list after already having undergone surgery. Rookie fifth-rounder DaRon Bland will likely be asked to handle more work for the remainder of the 2022 season in Lewis' absence.

Lewis (foot) is out for the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery Sunday David Moore of the Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lewis suffered a foot injury against the Lions that required a procedure after the contest. He'll finish his campaign with 26 tackles including a sack, plus an interception over six games. In the 27-year-old's absence, rookie Daron Bland will likely step into a larger role.
