Lewis, 6-foot, 208-pounds, was undrafted in 2012, but was invited to the Redskins training camp last season. He suffered an injury however and did not make the team. He took part in the Skins’ rookie minicamp a few days ago before being signed Tuesday.
Lewis caught 149 catches for 1,716 yards and 22 touchdowns in two seasons at ECU. In 2010, he set the East Carolina single-season record with 14 touchdown receptions.
