Patriots running back Dion Lewis is reportedly going under the knife for a second time on his knee and is out "indefinitely" according to Jim McBride of the Boston Globe.

Lewis tore his ACL back in November after emerging as a dynamic rushing and receiving threat in the Patriots up-tempo, short-passing offense.

It was expected he would return for the start of the regular season, but obviously suffered complications in his recovery and now could miss significant time in 2016 as well.

McBride reports his a "timetable for his return is uncertain," while Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Lewis is out "indefinitely" but could still return this season.
