The roller coaster ride that is Marcel Lewis’ 2020 football experience continues. On Monday, the redshirt freshman linebacker announced that he is entering the transfer portal.
Lewis had opted out of the season back in August, citing COVID-19 concerns, but ultimately opted back in before Monday’s decision to transfer. It’s important to note that Lewis lost one family member during the pandemic and had another severely sick in the hospital, so it is important for the MSU fan base to be empathetic to what this young man is going through.
In a statement released on Twitter, Lewis noted how difficult of a decision this was for him to make. One thing I cannot stand is when fans attack a player for transferring or de-committing from the team, so let’s please show some class to Marcel Lewis and his family and respect his decision.
