Lewis was signed by the Packers last year with the assumption he would be a key cog as a blocker in the run game. As you all know, that never materialized, leaving many wondering why the bothered making the move in the first place.
With a new head coach in town, one that considers Lewis' skillset an important part of his offensive scheme, the hope certainly will be that Lewis will be a much bigger contributor than he was in Mike McCarthy's offense.
