Linebacker Drew Lewis dismissed from UW football program

Drew Lewis, a redshirt freshman linebacker from Eastlake High School in Sammamish, has been dismissed from the Washington football program for an unspecified violation of team rules.

UW coach Chris Petersen announced the dismissal in a one-sentence news release Tuesday. No other details were provided.

Lewis redshirted last season at UW and worked with the second-string defense for much of the spring.

Lewis originally made a verbal commitment to UW in June 2013 under former coach Steve Sarkisian. He eventually affirmed his commitment and became part of Petersen’s first recruiting class at UW.
