As the longest-tenured Jaguar — entering his 12th year with the franchise — tight end Marcedes Lewis expects to be more involved with the offense in 2017.
Due to missing 19 games over the past four seasons, and the team emphasizing their young receivers/signing Julius Thomas in 2015, Lewis saw his role in the passing game diminish in recent seasons.
With Thomas being traded to the Dolphins this offseason, Lewis has a clearer path to more targets in the passing game.
One place where Lewis has excelled in recent years is racking up yards after the catch.
