News about Marcedes Lewis

Aaron Rodgers ignored Donald Trump - who could have been his political opponent - on Saturday night as the former US president attended UFC 302. Trump, who was convicted of 34 counts of falsifying business records on Thursday, shook hands with several fans as he walked by Rodgers. But the Jets quarterback, who was with former Packers teammate Marcedes Lewis, remained seated as he appeared to shake his head at the sight of the 45th president.

Marcedes Lewis, the Chicago Bears' tight end, will play his 18th season as a member of the Chicago Bears, committing to a one-year contract on Friday. Lewis, 39, was a first-round pick in 2006 and spent five seasons with the Green Bay Packers after 12 years in Jacksonville. Lewis is the only tight end in NFL history to play beyond a 17th season by playing in Year 18, breaking a tie with Tony Gonzalez and Jason Witten.

In a tweet on Tuesday, ESPN's Dianna Russini revealed that Rodgers, 39, wants Beckham Jr., as well as receiver Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb. Marcedes Lewis, the tightend, is also wanted by Rodgers. After having talks with the Super Bowl champion's representatives in California, the Jets are getting closer to filling their vacated starting quarterback position. The Packers have allowed the Jets permission to speak to a long-serving veteran.

On Sunday, Marcedes Lewis scored his first touchdown of the season in London, defeating New York, but he's unable to avoid him from being the first NFL tight end within touching distance. Lewis says of the record, in which he now shares with Jason Witten and Tony Gonzalez, he would certainly like to break it next year.' Lewis wrote, 'I love this when I wake up.' 'I don't wake up being like "man I'm 38, why do I have to go to practice? This is the stuff I'm looking forward to. I shouldn't have to go to meetings." I'm not there.'
