If Michigan was fielding a starting team based on current NFL players, here’s what it would look like

Creating something of a fantasy football situation selecting from nearly 40 Wolverines who are currently on NFL rosters to form a team.

Lewis doesn’t see the field as often as he probably should in Dallas, used mostly in nickel situations. But he’s filled in in a pinch, and has managed well.

JD has played in 46 NFL games and has 13 starts, to go along with 117 tackles, including six for loss, with four sacks and interceptions a piece. He also has two rushes for 10 yards and two kick returns for 38.

Despite a lack of play to some degree, whenever Lewis gets on the field, he clearly shows why he was a third-round pick by the Cowboys.
