Club career

Watford

Lewis joined the Academy at Watford in 2008, and progressed through the ranks to sign his first professional contract in July 2015. He played all along the right-flank for the under-21s during the 2015–16 campaign, making a total of 29 appearances.
On 28 July 2016, he joined National League club Woking on a season-long loan. He made his first team debut on 6 August, in a 3–1 defeat to Lincoln City at the Kingfield Stadium. He scored his first senior goal seven days later, in a 2–1 defeat at Southport. Between 3 September to 13 September he scored in three consecutive games, against Macclesfield Town, Guiseley and Torquay United. Following this spell, manager Garry Hill said that "Lewis did very well again, he's looking fitter and sharper and getting goals from midfield". On 28 January, he received the first red card of his career when he was dismissed for two bookable offences in a 1–0 victory at Eastleigh. Lewis scored four goals from 33 appearances as Woking posted an 18th-place finish in the 2016–17 season. He said it was "a great experience" playing for the "Cardinals", noting that it was "a lot more physical compared to playing in the U21s at Watford".
On 6 July 2017, he joined EFL League Two side Crawley Town on loan until the end of the year. He had previously played under "Red Devils" manager Harry Kewell when Kewell worked at the Watford Academy. He made his debut in the English Football League on 5 August, coming on as a 75th-minute substitute for Enzio Boldewijn in a 3–1 defeat to Port Vale at Broadfield Stadium.
On 13 April 2018, it was announced that Lewis would leave Watford at the conclusion of his contract in June 2018.

Falkirk

Lewis signed a one-year contract with Scottish Championship club Falkirk, effective from 1 July 2018. On 14 July 2018, Lewis made his Falkirk debut during their 1–0 home defeat to Montrose in the Scottish League Cup and three days later scored his first goal in their 2–0 victory over Forfar Athletic. In November 2018, Lewis spoke out about the alleged racist abuse he received from Falkirk's own fans.
In June 2019, Lewis signed for Wealdstone.
