Alex Lewis returned to New York on a three-year, $18.6 million deal that includes $6 million guaranteed.

Lewis was viewed as the Jets’ short-term fix at left guard last season after he replaced Kelechi Osemele after just three games. Now there’s a chance for him to retain a starting job on either side. He’ll have competition from Greg Van Roten on the left and Brian Winters, another potential cap casualty, on the right.

While Lewis’ career has been plagued by injuries and penalties — he incurred six flags during the 2019 campaign — he’s still a valuable depth piece even if he doesn’t end up starting.
