Tommylee Lewis (born October 24, 1992) is an American football wide receiver for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Northern Illinois and signed with the Saints as an undrafted free agent in 2016.[1] An undersized wide receiver, Northern Illinois was the only school to offer Lewis an athletic scholarship.[2] After not being selected in the 2016 NFL Draft, the Saints signed Lewis on a recommendation from Pro Football Hall of Fame coach Bill Parcells, who was a friend of Lewis' high school coach.[3]
