The former East Carolina receiver led the REDBLACKS in receptions (78), receiving yards (1,019) and receiving touchdowns (eight). His receiving yards and touchdown totals were good enough for fourth and third in the East Division respectively.
Lewis receives his fifth career divisional nod (2019, '21, '22, '24, '25) after posting the fourth 1,000-yard season of his eight year career. The 32-year old Norristown, Pennsylvania native registered 75 receptions for 1,012 yards and six touchdowns, ranking in the top 10 in all three categories league-wide.
Pickett earns his third consecutive East All-CFL nomination after leading the REDBLACKS in total tackles (98), defensive tackles (84), tackles for loss (five) and fumble recoveries (two), while also adding two quarterback sacks.
