FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The Jets acquired offensive lineman Alex Lewis from the Ravens Monday, some necessary depth for an offensive line that has little behind Kelechi Osemele and Brian Winters at the guard position.
Lewis announced Monday that he had been released by the Ravens. The Jets, though, snapped him up before he could go on the waiver wire.
The move was in exchange for a conditional seventh-round pick in the 2020 draft, according to reports. This is the second move general manager Joe Douglas has made this week to bolster the offensive line — the other being coaxing Pro Bowl center Ryan Kalil out of retirement.
