Josina Anderson reports that the Giants are signing veteran RB Dion Lewis to a one-year contract on Monday.
It’s worth mentioning that signing Lewis to a contract won’t impact the Giants’ 2021 compensatory picks, given that he was released this offseason.
Lewis, 29, is a former fifth-round pick of the Eagles back in 2011. After two years in Philadelphia, Lewis was traded to the Browns in return for Emmanuel Acho. He had a brief stint with the Colts before signing a future/reserve contract with the Patriots in 2015.
After completing a three-year, $3.1 million contract with the Patriots, Lewis signed a four-year deal worth $20 million with $11.5 million guaranteed with the Titans. Tennessee released Lewis a few weeks ago.
In 2019, Lewis appeared in all 16 games for the Titans and recorded 54 rushing attempts for 209 yards (3.9 YPC) to go along with 25 receptions for 164 yards (6.6 YPC) and one touchdown.
