Colorado Athletics conveyed their support for Lewis, reinforcing their commitment to aid in his recovery. They emphasized his well-being as a primary concern for the entire team.

Lewis, a sophomore, initially started the season as the Buffaloes’ quarterback. After four games, Coach Deion Sanders benched him in favor of junior Isaac Wilson. Lewis’s last action was on September 26 in a game against Baylor. Since then, the Buffaloes have struggled, logging a 0-3 record with Wilson and sitting at 2-5 for the season, last in the Big 12 at 0-4 in conference play.

Sanders addressed speculation about Lewis potentially resuming his role. He pointed out the importance of fairness and understanding within the team’s dynamics.

I don’t treat people unfairly. I don’t play games with young men and their careers. – Coach Deion Sanders

This season, Lewis has accumulated 733 passing yards, with six touchdowns and two interceptions over his four starts. His future with the team remains uncertain as he recovers from his health issue.
