Jourdan Lewis is having himself a great first half. After missing the last half of 2022 with a serious foot injury that kept him sidelined through the entire offseason, Lewis started off the 2023 season slowly. Things have really picked up for him in recent weeks. Last week, in the loss to the Miami Dolphins, Lewis was the club’s best defender, crashing down and stifling both ball carries and receivers.
He’s picked up where he left off in Week 17 against the Lions. After a four-tackle first quarter, Lewis added a fifth. His big play though came a little after. Dallas got ridiculous pressure on a designed screen, but Jared Goff got the toss off. He probably wishes he didn’t because Lewis made an insane break on the ball and dove for the interception.

Lewis had an interception against his hometown Lions last season as well. He’s showing out.
