The Calgary Stampeders have signed American receiver and kick returner Tommylee Lewis, the club announced on Monday.
The five-foot-seven, 168-pound speedster signed with the New Orleans Saints after going unselected in the 2016 NFL Draft. He dressed for 39 games over four seasons with the team, recording 21 receptions for 257 yards and two touchdowns, nine carries for 49 yards, 45 punt returns for 404 yards, and 27 kickoff returns for 617 yards.

This dude is a swear word in New Orleans haha. He's the guy who got trucked in the infamous 2018 NFC Championship Game no PI call vs the Rams. All he had to do was play dead after that & Saints are in the Super Bowl. Instead he pops up like nothing happened.
Great speed, shifty, and an excellent "glue guy", it's why Sean Payton kept bringing him back as he's loved in the locker room. Big personality, very jokey. Only issue is he has fumbling issues on returns. But that's mostly because he takes risks not calling for a fair catch, then gets cranked. Obviously that's not a factor in the CFL. Curious to see how this goes.
