David Wayne Lewis (born June 8, 1961) is an American former professional football player who was a tight end in the National Football League (NFL).
Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, Lewis played scholastically at Grant High School, where he was selected as a high school All-American by the National High School Athletic Coaches Association. He played college football for the California Golden Bears for three seasons, and, as a junior, was honored by Gannett News Service as a first-team All-American.
Lewis was selected by the Lions in the first round (20th overall) in the 1984 NFL draft. The Lions cut him before the start of the 1987 season, and he was signed by the Miami Dolphins one month later as a replacement player. He was one of the last replacement players to be cut from the roster once the veteran players returned from the 1987 NFL player's strike, and was re-signed by the Dolphins in December.
