Alex Lewis (born April 21, 1992) is an American football offensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Nebraska.

College career

Lewis started his career with Colorado, playing all 12 games as a true freshman in 2011 at tackle and tight end before moving to guard. He played all of the 2012 at left guard in 2012.

After the 2012 season, Lewis transferred to Nebraska, where his father, Bill Lewis, was an All-American center. He sat out the 2013 season due to transfer rules and started all games for Nebraska in 2014 and 2015.

Professional career

The Baltimore Ravens selected Lewis with the 130th overall pick in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.[1] He played in 10 games with 8 starts at guard for the Ravens before missing the last six weeks of the season with a sprained ankle.

On August 10, 2017 during the Ravens first preseason games, Lewis suffered a shoulder injury that required surgery, causing him to miss the entire 2017 season.[2] He was placed on injured reserve on September 1, 2017.[3]
