Gregory Alan Lewis, Jr. (born February 12, 1980 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American football wide receiver currently with the Philadelphia Eagles. He attended Rich South High School in Richton Park, Illinois, which retired his jersey, #8, in 2004. He went to the University of Illinois as a walk-on. Lewis signed as a undrafted free agent with the Eagles in 2003. He has been known for his speediness but has not been able to make a major impact in Philadelphia's crowded receiver corps.
Lewis caught a 30-yard touchdown pass from Donovan McNabb in the fourth quarter of the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl XXXIX loss to the New England Patriots. Lewis is the only WR in Eagles history to have a touchdown catch in a Super Bowl.
