RB Dion Lewis: DUD

At this stage, it’s difficult to see what exactly Lewis brings to this offense.

Largely unable to crack the running back rotation, when Lewis did get a carry on Sunday, he failed to convert a 4th down and 1 on the Giants’ opening possession of the game. It’s easy, and accurate to blame the playcall in the situation, but it just underscores what little Lewis has brought to the ground game this season.

As Wayne Gallman and Alfred Morris added a bit of thunder and lightning duo to the backfield, Lewis was even limited in the passing game, being held to just two catches for 16 yards.
