Plays in all 17 games in 2024
Hewitt finished the 2024 season with 59 tackles (31 solo), three pass breakups, including one interception, and two forced fumbles across 17 regular-season games.
ANALYSIS
Hewitt made four starts while Azeez Al-Shaair missed time due to a knee injury and three-game suspension, and the former was also a stalwart on special teams for the Texans. The veteran linebacker's 59 tackles were his most since 2021. Turning 32 years old in April, Hewitt is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. He's long been a dependable reserve linebacker more than capable of filling in as a starter while chasing down kickoffs and punts.

Erik Siegrist previews the Monday night matchup with game predictions, fantasy projections and DFS picks as Russell Wilson and the Seahawks try to turn around their season against the Football Team.
Jordan Mazzara highlights the best IDP picks for Week 10, starting with Ravens linebacker Josh Bynes, who had a breakout performance Week 9 with 11 tackles and a pass breakup.
2020 Fantasy Outlook
After toiling away as a reserve for a few years, Hewitt finally got the opportunity to step into a starting role with injuries ravaging the Jets' linebacker corps in 2019. He made the most of that chance, racking up 75 tackles, three sacks and two interceptions in 12 games. It appeared Hewitt was destined for a return to a backup role in 2020, but he should pick up where he left off as a starter now that C.J. Mosley has opted out of the season.
