Taylor Lewan

Taylor Curtis Lewan (born July 22, 1991) is an American former professional football player who was a tackle for nine seasons with the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). Lewan played college football for the Michigan Wolverines, twice earning first-team All-American honors, and was selected by the Titans in the first round of the 2014 NFL draft. During his NFL career, Lewan was named to three consecutive Pro Bowls from 2016 to 2018. He was released by the Titans in 2023 after sustaining season-ending injuries in two of his final three seasons. Since retiring, Lewan has co-hosted the podcast Bussin' With The Boys with former Titans teammate and longtime former NFL linebacker Will Compton.
