Tyler Lewis is a young, active Idaho State DB with early-season tackling chops
In the 2026 season, Idaho State defensive back Tyler Lewis has logged 1 tackle in the Bengals’ opener against VMI and is listed as an active sophomore at 5-foot-9, 192 pounds. His background shows versatility — he played outside linebacker, safety, and wide receiver in high school — which usually translates to a player who understands leverage, coverage angles, and contact from multiple viewpoints. He’s still early in his college track, but that multi-position profile and immediate game action suggest a developmental defender worth watching for toughness and utility.
