Tulane cornerback Donnie Lewis suffered a shoulder injury in the Green Wave's 24-14 loss to Memphis on Oct. 14 and the initial diagnosis was the last thing he ever wanted to hear.
Lewis was on his way to a breakout season as Tulane's starting cornerback opposite Parry Nickerson, but doctors told him there was a good chance that his season would come to an end because of his injury.
Tulane goes on the road to play UCF on Saturday at 4 p.m.
However, doctors did tell Lewis that with the proper amount of rehab, he may be able to return this season.
