On Tuesday afternoon, On3’s Matt Zenitz shared that Northwestern defensive back and redshirt senior Jeremiah Lewis has entered the transfer portal. Following Pat Fitzgerald’s firing on July 10, Lewis is the third NU player to enter the portal — and the first returning one — after first-year linebackers Nigel Glover and Justin Cryer did so last week.
