Marcedes Lewis has been overly criticized by this fan base. He has been a Jaguar for a decade now, and no matter what any body thinks, he's been a hell of a TE in the league. Most players could only dream to have a career like he has. I think he was used for the better part of his career as Fred Taylor and then Maurice Jones Drew's blocker, but the guy can catch, I don't care what anyone says. He's made some baller catches even last year. He's a been one of the best all around TE in the league. Not necessarily a Gronk or Jimmy Grahm, but just as an overall TE, he's been a top player at his position. 

 

I think the team has been loyal with Marcedes and has rewarded him with two contracts, maybe he is realizing and returning the favor. He wants to stay here, he wants to play with Julius and see this team progress. 

 

Hope Lewis and Thomas create a great tandem this season.
