“A source with knowledge of the situation tells CBSSports.com that Lewis and his camp are "bracing" for the possibility of the Titans releasing their No. 2 running back ahead of 2020 free agency.
There's still a chance Tennessee could ask Lewis to restructure the four-year, $19.8 million contract he signed in 2018. The Titans have yet to approach Lewis about that, per the source, likely because they'd consider retaining Lewis if Henry somehow lands elsewhere in free agency. But as long as Henry is back, it's thought to be likely they don't keep Lewis at a $5.1 million cap number...”
“The Detroit Lions, Miami Dolphins and New York Giants, meanwhile, are expected to make a play for Lewis in the event he hits the open market, per a league source. All three figure to be in the market for veteran depth at RB.”

I'm not sure where that NR came from
Ditto. Just don't see the upside. He doesn't do anything that Saquon can't do, but better.
A 7th round/UDFA power back is fine.
There's a right price for any decent player. Dion Lewis still has some value, and the Giants do need a backup RB to spell Barkley and avoid another Jon Hilliman fiasco. Can't see making a significant investment in Lewis though. That's a role you can probably fill with one of our abundant 7th-round picks.
While it is possible to find a quality 2nd string RB in the 7th RD, the odds are still against it.

Ahmed Bradshaw...just sayin
No way they spend free agent money on a backup rb unless it is vet minimum.
Why should the Giants?
They shouldn't!
It probably can wait another year but just sayin'.
Exactly.
