On long-term scout potential he's rated 16.7, ranking 441st of 481 in the League One. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (35.9% of available minutes).

Judged on this season alone, Hewitt graded 17 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 60th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One, on 6 clean sheets and 2.843 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 14 → 17). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2021/22.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 17, 77th of 88 of the 88 centre-backs in the League One. At 32 Hewitt is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 2.5 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 27 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 35.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 16.7, Hewitt carries the 77th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the League One of 88. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.84 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
