Lewis logged seven tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 30-24 loss to the 49ers. Lewis played 65 snaps with the first-team defense Sunday due to Caelen Carson (shoulder) being inactive. It was a season-high defensive snap share for Lewis, and through the first seven games of the regular season he has registered 26 tackles (15 solo), three passes defended and one fumble recovery.

Lewis was activated from the PUP list Tuesday, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' website reports. The veteran cornerback will be on the roster for Week 1, but it's not yet clear just how close Lewis is to being ready for game action after missing all of training camp and the preseason while completing his recovery from a Lisfranc injury. Once he's able to suit up, he'll primarily compete with DaRon Bland for snaps as the slot cornerback.

Lewis (foot) might avoid the PUP list to begin the regular season, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports. The slot cornerback suffered a Lisfranc injury in Week 7 last year and missed the rest of the season, but he's made good progress in his recovery and appears ready to begin practicing. If Lewis does end up on the PUP list when Dallas sets its initial 53-man roster, he would be required to miss the first four games of the season. The 27-year-old may not be guaranteed a significant role when he does return, however, as DaRon Bland emerged as a ballhawk in Lewis' absence last season, and the Cowboys signed Stephon Gilmore in the offseason to bolster their secondary.

Dallas placed Lewis (foot) on its injured reserve list Monday. Lewis suffered a season-ending Lisfranc injury during Sunday's win versus Detroit, and he's now officially on the Cowboys' injured reserve list after already having undergone surgery. Rookie fifth-rounder DaRon Bland will likely be asked to handle more work for the remainder of the 2022 season in Lewis' absence.

Lewis (groin) did not participate during the Cowboys' practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports. Lewis did not play during Week 4's win over the Commanders after picking up a groin injury in pregame warmups, though the exact nature and severity of this issue are still unclear. As a result, rookie cornerback Daron Bland saw his first defensive action of the season, recording three tackles and an interception over 58 defensive snaps. If Lewis is unable to work his way back into practice over the next two days, expect Bland to step back in as Dallas' nickel corner this Sunday against the Rams.
