Seattle Seahawks guard Damien Lewis had a strong rookie season in 2020, making the Pro Football Writers of America’s All-Rookie Team and being the only Seahawk to do so this year.
The Seahawks selected Lewis in the third round in the 2020 NFL Draft with the No. 69 overall pick and he made an immediate impact, playing every snap in the season opener against the Falcons and going on to start all 16 regular-season games and the postseason loss against the Rams.
Lewis proved himself a solid run blocker this year and Pro Football Focus gave him a run-blocking grade of 81.5. He could use improvement in the passing game but has plenty of room to grow.
Lewis could prove crucial to the stability of the Seahawks’ offensive line in the near future, especially considering the uncertainty of several other players positioned adjacent to him.
