Dion Lewis officially became a New York Giant after signing a one-year, $1.55 million deal this week. The 29-year-old running back will thus reunite with head coach Joe Judge. The two spent time in New England together from 2015-17 and helped the Patriots win Super Bowl 51.
Reuniting with Judge was one of the reasons Lewis inked a deal with Big Blue. During his conference call on Friday, he spoke about teaming up with the newly hired head coach and growing up a Giants fan.
“I think it was a perfect and unique opportunity,” he said, via the Giants official website.
