Eagles Sign QB Thad Lewis

The 27-year-old Lewis reunites with offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur in Philadelphia. A former 2010 rookie free agent signing of the St. Louis Rams out of Duke, Lewis was claimed off waivers by the Cleveland Browns in his rookie season and made his first career start in 2012 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Lewis was 22-of-32 for 204 yards with a touchdown and an interception.

In the 2013 offseason, Lewis (6-2, 220 pounds) was signed by the Lions and then traded to Buffalo where he went 2-3 in five games as a starter with both wins coming against Miami.

Last season, Lewis joined Houston late in the season after a season-ending injury to Ryan Mallett.
