On 11 June 2006 Lewis was accused of spitting on Port Adelaide onballer Kane Cornes. Lewis apologised to Cornes after the incident, in which he spat on Cornes' hand. On 14 June, an AFL inquiry found that it was unclear whether Lewis had accidentally spat on Cornes, while spitting on the ground, or whether his actions were deliberate. the league declined to impose a penalty and investigations officer John Coburn said: "the fact that Cornes' hand was at his side lent weight to Lewis' claim he was intending to spit on the ground."

A lowlight of his career was in 2010 when he was knocked unconscious during a collision with Jarrod Harbrow of the Western Bullogs. While he was cleared to play the following week, Lewis later stated it affected him for several weeks.
