Marcedes Lewis - Page 9 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Not on final injury report Lewis (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Vikings, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Lewis sandwiched Thursday's missed practice between limited sessions Wednesday and Friday, but he's apparently feeling healthy enough to suit up Sunday. The veteran tight end is poised to share reps with Jace Sternberger behind Robert Tonyan, who has emerged as quarterback Aaron Rodgers' favorite target at the position.

Fails to practice Thursday Lewis (knee) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.

Impact Lewis took a step back in the Packers' second practice of the week, as he had been a limited participant at Wednesday's session. The Packers haven't indicated that Lewis experienced a setback, making it possible that his absence Thursday may have amounted to pre-planned maintenance. In any case, the Packers will decide whether the blocking specialist will carry a designation into Sunday's game against the Vikings following Friday's practice.

Ready for Week 6 Lewis (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The veteran tight end never put in a full practice session this week due to the knee issue, but it won't impact his availability for Sunday's contest. Lewis has two receptions for 22 yards and is mostly serving as a blocking tight end this season.

Can't practice Thursday Lewis (knee) did not participate during Thursday's practice session, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Given that the 36-year-old sat out Green Bay's Week 4 win over Atlanta with the same injury, it's discouraging for his Week 6 status that he's downgraded from limited practice participation to non-participation between Wednesday and Thursday. Lewis still has a chance to suit up for the Packers' Week 6 showdown with Tampa Bay if he can show progress to team trainers, but he's trending in the wrong direction at the moment.

Still bothered by knee injury Lewis (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Lewis usually takes a veteran rest day on Wednesdays when he's healthy, but it's encouraging that he's practicing in some capacity for the first time since Week 3. If he's able to play Sunday versus the Buccaneers, Lewis likely won't have a major role considering how well Robert Tonyan performed in a Week 4 win over the Falcons.

Listed as doubtful Lewis (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Falcons.

Impact The lack of pass-catching depth for the Packers continues to rear its ugly head as Allen Lazard's undefined absence following core muscle surgery is only worsened by Lewis' doubtful designation. Robert Tonyan and Jace Sternberger will continue to operate as the two main TEs for the Packers, but the wide receiver corps is dangerously thin behind Davante Adams (hamstring) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, which would have likely allowed for the veteran to see a few more snaps if he were able to play.

Misses another practice Lewis (knee) was absent from practice Saturday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Lewis didn't participate in Thursday's practice, either, as he deals with an unspecified knee issue. His absence wouldn't be a major blow to the Packers' plans, as he's caught just two passes all year, though one of those passes came in the end zone.

DNP for Thursday's session Lewis (knee) was a non-participant during Thursday's practice session.

Impact The 36-year-old tight end collected his first TD catch of the season while playing 32 percent of the offensive snaps during Sunday night's win against the Saints, and there was no report shared during the game that would indicate an injury to Lewis. He's popped up on the injury report for Green Bay's first practice of the week, as the team prepares for a Monday night matchup against a Falcons defense that has so far this season surrendered the third-most receiving yards to opposing tight ends.

Finds paydirt in Week 3 win Lewis was targeted twice and finished with one reception for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-30 victory over the Saints.

Impact Lewis found himself in the right place at the right time when Aaron Rodgers scrambled out of the pocket in the third quarter, and he was able to find paydirt for the first time this season. He's started all three games the Packers have played, but he's been targeted only three times and was on the field for just 20 of the 62 plays Green Bay ran Sunday. Robert Tonyan is the tight end to target if you're looking to scoop up a Packers tight end.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2020 • PACKERS.COM

First reception of season Lewis had one reception for four yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

Impact Lewis started for the second time in as many weeks, and although he made more of an impact than he did in Week 1 he still barely registered in the box score. Lewis has played 43 percent of the snaps through two weeks and should continue filling a regular role, but with just one target thus far the veteran is not active enough in the passing game to draw interest from fantasy players.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Opening atop depth chart Lewis is listed as the starting tight end on the unofficial depth chart released by the Packers on Monday night.

Impact The Packers have four tight ends who could see the field, but the veteran Lewis gets the honor of opening the 2020 campaign atop the depth chart. Lewis was credited with 11 starts a year ago but caught only 15 passes, so don't assume his standing means he will play a fantasy-friendly role. He does figure to see plenty of snaps, though, given his run-blocking prowess.
