Last season with the Bears, Lewis ranked fifth in run-blocking, according to Pro Football Focus, which also gave him a 77.1 grade, which also ranked him fifth among the other NFL tight ends. If Lewis were to re-sign with the Bears, this would give them three tight ends who had top-30 PFF grades last year:

5. Marcedes Lewis (77.1)

11. Cole Kmet (73.7)

26. Gerald Everett (65.6)

Lewis, 40, signed a one-year, $2,000,000 deal with the Bears in 2023, reuniting him with his former offensive coordinator, Luke Getsy.

This will be Lewis’ 19th season in the NFL
