Following the footsteps of his father, Lewis starred as a running back at Lake Mary Prep High School in Florida. In his high school career, he rushed for 5,283 yards and scored 53 touchdowns in three seasons, according to Max Preps.

After high school, Lewis played college football at the University of Miami, where he was on the practice squad as a freshman in 2013. Following his freshman year at Miami, he transferred to Coastal Carolina.

Lewis’ football career came to a halt at Coastal Carolina during the 2016 season after he was arrested and charged with criminal sexual conduct in South Carolina. Following his arrest, he was suspended from the football team.

After a lengthy investigation, the charges against Lewis was dropped in 2017.

Eventually, Lewis landed at Virginia Union University to end his collegiate career. Switching to defense at Virginia Union, Lewis posted 37 tackles in his only season.

In 2021, Lewis signed with the Wyoming Mustangs, a professional indoor football team.

Mark James, Lewis’ coach at Virginia Union University, shared a post on Facebook about Lewis’ death.

“Two RIP posts for my former players back to back,” James’ post read. “Young man it was a pleasure to bring you to Virginia Union. Ray Ray May God bless your family. Great young man.”
