Number Three: TommyLee Lewis

Tommylee Lewis is a 5-foot-7 wide receiver who has spent three seasons with the New Saints throughout his career primarily as a return specialist and speed option towards the bottom of the receiving depth chart.

He was released by the Saints following the 2018 season but the team signed him to a futures deal this offseason and he will look to compete for a spot on the final roster.

Lewis, 27, has 20 receptions for 252 yards and two touchdowns in his career to go along with his seven carries for 35 yards. Lewis has a career catch percentage of 71.4 percent which is actually pretty impressive.

Lewis also has 60 career special teams returns for 863 yards averaging out to 14.3 yards per return.

Tommylee Lewis offers a bit more to the Saints than some of the other guys on this list but it could be hard for him to crack the final roster with Pro Bowl return specialist Deonte Harris already on the roster.

Nonetheless, it will still be intriguing to see if Lewis can have a strong offseason and give the Saints a difficult decision.
