Baltimore Ravens QB Thaddeus Lewis, TE Larry Donnell and C Jeremy Zuttah were released Friday, Sept. 1.

Footballguys view: Donnell was brought in after the Ravens suffered an injury and suspension at tight end, but apparently they are satisfied with Nick Boyle, Maxx Williams, and Ben Watson. Zuttah was re-signed after being cut in the offseason, with the hopes of providing depth, but they didn't see enough value in him to keep him.

Footballguys view: Ryan Mathews gets the start, but he's a low RB2/Flex type at best with the Eagles running stuck in a ditch on the side of the road. Darren Sproles should also see more work in the Eagles backfield.

Free-agent QB Thaddeus Lewis (Browns) signed with the Philadelphia Eagles Monday, Sept. 21. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. The team also waived QB Stephen Morris.

Footballguys view: Morris has perfect passing mechanics and athleticism, but he struggles with accuracy. Think of him like a poor man's Jake Locker. Lewis is more accurate, but he's not the answer this team needs at quarterback.

  Browns | QB still an issue in Cleveland?    Mon May 4, 05:42 PM

Cleveland Browns head coach Mike Pettine doesn't seem overly concerned with the Browns' current state at quarterback. Pettine said the quarterback position isn't the only position that wins football games. QBs Josh McCown, Johnny Manziel, Thaddeus Lewis and Connor Shaw are currently on Cleveland's roster.

Footballguys view: Of course QB is still an issue for the Browns...go ahead and remove the question mark from the headline. McCown is a journeyman starter and no long-term answer for Cleveland. Manziel is a great unknown because of his unorthodox skill set, bad rookie season and entrance into rehab this offseason. Lewis and Shaw are no more than reserve players at best. This team is built to run the ball, and we're not expecting much fantasy value to be had from their passing game.

Free-agent QB Thaddeus Lewis (Browns) re-signed with the Cleveland Browns on an undisclosed deal Thursday, March 12.

  Texans | Andre Johnson has connection with backups    Wed Dec 17, 04:43 PM

Houston Texans WR Andre Johnson has a pretty good connection with both QBs Thaddeus Lewis and Case Keenum, who will be battling for the start in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. Lewis was coached by head coach Bill O'Brien back in college, and Lewis also worked with Johnson in the offseason in South Florida.

Footballguys view: Keenum connected with Johnson for five touchdown passes last year (including three in one game), and Johnson likes Keenum's approach at the QB position.

Houston Texans QBs Case Keenum and Thaddeus Lewis will find out later this week which one of them will start versus the Baltimore Ravens in Week 16.

Footballguys view: Keenum has more experience after serving as a backup and spot starter for the Texans for years. Lewis has a stronger arm and is more athletic, but the team could choose to keep him as a backup.

Houston Texans QB Ryan Mallett (pectoral) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Wednesday, Nov. 26, and QB Thaddeus Lewis was promoted to the active roster in a corresponding move.

Footballguys view: This is just a bad break for Mallett. He came over to the Texans in a trade earlier this year after spending most of his career as the primary backup behind Tom Brady. Now, Mallett is heading into free agency coming off this injury with only two starts under his belt.

  Bills | Thaddeus Lewis cut    Tue Aug 26, 09:08 AM

The Buffalo Bills released QB Thaddeus Lewis.

Footballguys view: Lewis was a game competitor for the Bills when pressed into duty last year, but his early knowledge of the offense and solid games have faded into a lack of confidence in him by the Buffalo staff. He could catch on elsewhere when injuries start to strike during the season.

  Bills | Two in roster danger    Mon Aug 18, 02:12 AM

Buffalo Bills QB Thaddeus Lewis and DL Alan Branch may be in danger of losing their spots on the roster. Coach Doug Marrone has been critical of Lewis' play, which has been way down from last season, and Branch failed a conditioning test before reporting to camp.

Footballguys view: We'll see if Lewis can turn things around the rest of the preseason. The Bills lack quality depth behind starter E.J. Manuel. Jeff Tuel and Dennis Dixon are the only other players at quarterback in Bills camp.

  Bills | Coach not happy with backup QB play    Sun Aug 17, 08:27 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Doug Marrone said he was not happy with the play of QBs Thaddeus Lewis and Jeff Tuel during the second preseason game. Lewis went 1-for-6 for 18 yards and an interception, while Tuel went 5-for-9 for 48 yards and a fumble. The competition for the No. 2 quarterback job is still considered open.

Footballguys view: EJ Manuel has been a middling to poor option for the Bills, but neither of the backups are inspiring confidence after Lewis was actually quite functional in the Marrone/Hackett offense last year. Manuel also missed multiple games with injuries last year, so this is shaping up for a potentially disastrous season at QB for Buffalo with Cleveland holding their first-round pick next year.

Buffalo Bills QBs Thaddeus Lewis and Jeff Tuel are battling for the primary back job to QB EJ Manuel. Lewis continued to struggled Friday, Aug. 1, and Tuel had one of his best days of training camp, creating some space in the battle to be backup.

Footballguys view: We can't imagine Tuel winning the primary backup job. Lewis is more athletic and has a stronger arm. We'll see this battle play out through training camp.

Buffalo Bills QBs Jeff Tuel and Thaddeus Lewis are alternating series with the second unit in team drills Tuesday, July 22.

Footballguys view: Tuel has a weak arm, but he's accurate on shorter routes. Lewis is the player to watch here. He is athletic, can zip the ball downfield and looked good in limited playing time last year. Starting QB E.J. Manuel needs to avoid the injuries that plagued him last year. If Manuel is hurt, Lewis could take over and have some nice weapons around him to throw to.
