Former Pitt running back Dion Lewis put the finishing touches on the best season of his career on Sunday, contributing 133 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns to the New England Patriots’ 26-6 win over the New York Jets.
In the Week 17 matchup, Lewis ran for 93 yards and a touchdown, though it took him a career-high 26 attempts to do so. However, he added 40 yards and another touchdown on six catches, and his input was vital to the Patriots’ win, which set them up with the No. 1 seed in the AFC heading into the playoffs.
