  • 2:07

  • favorite rutgers player all time

  • he is in cincinati last time i saw he was hurt but idk but he gave so much up for his team and that is wat its about he is a great player

  • Love the shit outta this guy. Cincinnati Bengals workhorse.

  • man. where is this guy? i dont see him at all in the NFL. is it cause i'm blind?

  • @nineTproduction he used to play for the rams idk bout it now lookem up

  • man i want this guy in tenessee so badly

  • This video makes me cry...kid had so much game. Hardest working player ever to wear the scarlet.

  • I met this dude when I was 11 and now I'm thirteen he is the nicest person and great hearted and he deserves everything he has! Strong as hell and just hell of a payer.

  • HE'S EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • still think the giants should give this man a contract! just imagine having this man go out on screens or flats! nightmare for linebackers and will free up boss!!! also did i forget to mention HE CAN RUN THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @GMen025 i agree..i mean hedgcock aint bad..just cant cath for shit lmao

  • It's still kinda weird that he came from my hometown. He's a celebrity here wicked bad(: It's amazing how a small town guy can make it big. It gives me hope that maybe I can try something similar(;

  • He will always be my favorite player

  • Yes Aqua Bengal!

  • EPIC. Just remember that this guy took rutgers from 1-11 to 11-2 in just 2 years. go knights and keep on leaping leonard.

  • This guy plays his heart out every time he gets the ball or even when blocking and special teams for Bengals. 110% everytime. I hope they sign him for a contract extension next year.

  • haha this is some cool shit, ive heard a lot about this guy cuz i play football against his highschool team but ive never seen him do work. pretty fuckin sick.

  • lot of heart...

  • agreed ksrgod. Anyone catch the first bengal steeler game this year where he gave the extra effort to get the bengals the 4th down conversion? hell of a player.

  • amazing 3rd down back on the bengals

  • proof that white boys can run da ball!!

  • Gotta love this guy doin' work in a league of showboating prima donnas.

  • yeah! upstate new york football! brian leonard is the fucking man

  • Pretty gnarly tribute, well done.

  • dude saved the game for the Bengals today. You gotta love guys like this. Very Mike Alstott-esque.

  • 0:57 -Double whammy. Playing football the way it was meant to be played. Rutgers Stadium= the house Leonard built.

  • I ate dinner with him. My parents went to school with him in highschool. kinda weird to think i ate with a famouse person basically. he wasnt pro when i did at the time.

  • LMFAO the kid is only 23-24 so stop lying about your parents going to highschool with him.

  • dude you know nothing. he was born 1984 he was a freshmen when my dad was a jr. my parents are only 33 and 34. so fuck off. brian leanord went to goveneur highschool in goveneur New,York. His parents still live there its a small town of 4k people. so dont say shit you dont know.

  • i was born in 1986. i was a frosh at rutgers when he was a senior (should have been a soph, but i took a year off). i'm only 23 right now. the numbers dont add up.

  • im so happy hes with the bengals. hes really played well in preseason and made the team

  • RAMS MADE A BIG MISTAKE

  • BENGALS

  • I play at the Ru when we were 1-11, 0-10, good to see it change. This kid was the core, great song to match the vid!

  • Im from the same town as Brian, he was a beast in High School too... Time to show Bengal fans what hes got.

  • Wow. now he actually has a chance to start. hes behind an unproven Benson. But benson still has some potential i think they'd be a crazy 2 headed monster. like benson and jones were. as u can tell im from chicago baby

  • He's a fucking beast!!!

  • i used to always just try to run people over and spin off of them but after i saw the leonard leap and i tried it i got good. now i'm the all time leading rusher in my high school's history

  • of course you are buddy

  • Favorite player ever.

    Amazing football player, even more amazing person.

    The story of why he decided to go to Rutgers demonstrates that. Both on and off the field, one of the true great athletes I've ever seen. Bengal fans should be thrilled they'll get a chance to watch him.

  • damn whiteboys got speed!!!!

    I hope this encourages more white runningbacks in the NFL.

  • I really hope he gets the #1 job and encourages NFL teams to get white running backs.

  • 2:00 does this guy think hes MJ trying to hurdle a guy standing straight up and five yards away lol Who Dey!

  • Who Dey

  • the bengals love players who leap over people, last year they got Jerome Simpson who made a nice jump over someone, then they just got chase coffman who did it multiple times and now Brian Leonard

  • I absolutly love this video. Im about to be a junior at my Highschool in Nj. im a huge rutgers fan. Brian Leonard used to be and still is one of my heros. He is an amazing football player, and i know he will become the starting running back at bengals.

  • Good luck with the Bengals. This was a dumbass deal by the Rams getting a special teamer for him Orien Harris who the bengals got off free agency last year.... Im sorry but Spag's hasn't been doing that good by passing on maualuga and Drafting a DT in the 4th round instead of a WR better than brooks foster.

  • hes a BENGAL now :) but im not liking how much he tries to hurrdle people lol

  • check out kyle madden on search up comming fb rb just a soph

  • Indeed he is an awesome player. I think his brother Nate was even better. I went to high school with Brain, I remember the time in gym that we were playing flag football, and he tackled this girl and she was on the ground in tears. Brain just walked away like nothing happened.

  • well ... nobody from outside really knows how these guys tick ...

    WE can only repeat what great of a player he is

  • rams should consider changing a few things ... possibly leonard is on the starting lineup next season, who knows

    i'm a steelers guy, but i'd love to see this man play a couple more games next season

    if im not mistaking, the steelers play them this season too ... really easy schedule for pittsburgh this season if u ask me

  • Too bad he's on a team with a top 5 NFL RB. Maybe if Leonard played for the Browns he would be the #1 back.

  • If u really think about it, Leonard should play TE

  • Joe Martinek is the next star white RB!

  • Brian Leonard and Jacob Hester are getting screwed by th NFL because they are WHITE!! Just have the balls to say it! NFL sterotype white boys can't play RB. Black men can play QB, but do you dare allow a white boy to play RB!!

  • beast

  • Brian Leonard is going to be a fulltime starter at Running Back in maybe 2-3 years because at that time Steven Jackson won't be the same that he was

  • cincy should have this guy

  • They Do! lol You called that! You think he will give Benson some competition?

  • he won't give benson one shred of competition because they've established him as their feature back and have paid him as such, but honestly thats not why they're bringing him in. He'll be best suited as a 3rd down back for us but he'll probably get some carries. Is he a decent blocker?

  • Yeah they say he can block well and he also is a good receiving back as well. I figured he would be a third down back as well but I read his scouting report and it was amazing. Not that a scouting report justifies anything. What do you think our biggest hole is now? 3rd corner back is what allot of people are saying and they are looking at rod hood.

  • he earned himself a second round pick as a fullback in college so i would imagine he is more than a decent blocker

  • He is going to be Benson backup and come in on third downs,which will make Carson Palmer a better qb this season.

  • yeah i know they didnt have him back then. benson is tops :D

  • this guy is getting screwed by the nfl, he should be a runningback, he is getting injured because his frame is not supposed to handle all that extra weight that is required to be a fullback

  • 6.2 is a nice hieght for a full back but its just the wieght thats a problem..

  • it doesnt matter what height he has, he doesnt have the frame to be a fullback. randy moss is 6'5 do you think his frame could handle being a fullback if he had the same frame at 3 inches shorter? besides there are plenty of RB that are over 6'0 and nobody is asking them to play fullback

  • last time i checked a fullback is a runningback and it doesnt matter on the size of ur body frame to be a fullback

  • a fullback is not the same as a halfback in todays nfl. How many times does a fullback actually get to carry the ball? And yes frame does matter for fullbacks. You need someone bulky to LEAD block for the halfback. Leanord should be the runner, not the blocker. Look at certain NFL Halfback's frame like Reggie Bush, could he bulk up and be a permanant BLOCKER, NO, he would get injured alot. You DO have to have a certain frame to be a lead blocker. Mike Karney has a nice frame for being a FB

  • looks like the mike karney thing was right, Rams went and signed Karney to be the FULLback. Leonard should be getting plenty of carries as a TAILback

  • Too bad Mike Karney isnt blocking for Leonard and they got rid of him, Karney is an great blocker, Leonard is a great runner

  • no he will not get a lot of carries^^ we will see as much of him this year as we did last year and the year before

  • he will get alot of carries behind Cedric Benson

  • i agree. jacob hester is gettin the same treatment and he looks more like a back than a fullback hes to small to lead blcok. Both should have gotten more carries

  • yeah Hester is getting screwed, they said Hester was too slow to play halfback at 4.6, hes faster than Moreno and comparable to Wells in speed. His ten yard burst is incredible, the same time as Mcfadden at 1.5 with a much bigger frame, that kind of talent is being wasted. Leonard ran what a 4.49? , if he came out this year he would have been one of the fastest halfbacks in the draft

  • leonard gave new jersey there college football team back.... GO RUTGERSS

  • the song is kinda fitting, the guy has sacrificed himself, so much he can not finish a complete season. Hopefully '09 he paves the way (injury-free) for steven jackson.

  • the only thing he doesnt have is balance... thats the most important thing if you want to be great

  • he plays for the ravens now

  • no he doesnt, hes playing for the rams for 2 years now - but hes not a starting player ... :(

  • noo...ray rice plays for the ravens..brian leonard plays for the rams..both arent starting though..but what can you say..mcgahee has been been playing for a long ass time and steven jackson is marshall faulks prodigy.

  • he put rutgers on the map... my favorite fullback by far.

  • holy shit 2:03

    if you can't get by a guy jus kick em in the face

  • i htink this guy is the only dude i know that hurdles people

  • chase coffman does it to

  • Went to high school with him, great guy, great attitude, great athlete...

  • Is he still on the rams?

  • For now...

  • Yep sadly he got a injury cutting his season to end earlier this year... Can't wait to see him in action in 2009!

  • he the best running fullback i have ever seen, if he is a fullback

  • hes a tailback now

  • my idol! ive watched this like 1000 times... and i still dont see any flaws.. ive seen his other vids.. and i wish i could be him... it just pisses me off that hes not starter for the rams.. he is not big enough to be starter fullback.. and he isnt fast enough to be starting halfback.. but damn he kiks ass..

  • L33T!!

  • damn brian is big. you should see his high school highlights. he's the biggest player on the field.

  • wow dude he is a BIG boy to. and he's outrunning everyone. awesome

  • ma idol

  • love him and love hes a nice guy too , thats very important

  • great video, but at the end should say forever a wildcat!!! i graduated from gouverneur with brian, i have some great stories and memories with him.. especially when we had senior skip day at my house... thanks for the great video hideo, one of the best ive seen

  • OMG MAYBE I DO HAVE HOPE, WHITE GUYS CAN JUMP!!!!

    (this comment is not meant to be rascist)

  • great video

  • hes class

  • well,he may be a jerk,i dont know him,but if he is,he can hurdle!

  • dickhead or not, his a good player!

  • He may be a great player, but just so you people know, he is an asshole in real life. I went to high school with this kid and played football with him. And even after he got drafted, he is still an immature dick head when he is back home. I guess living in a small town in upstate NY will do that to you. NFL went straight to his head, and he thinks he is the greatest person to ever live... One's attitude off field, speaks louder than their attitude on field.

  • I'm not sayin ur wrong or anything, cuz i don't personally know him, but when u put all the heart and effort into every single game, he can be a dick, just watch him for an entire game, even when he's given blocking assignments he goes all out...now if he was like T.O. thats a whole diff story because guys like him think they are the shit and don't give all they have in every game

  • is it just me or does it seem like this guy was more crucial to rutgers than rice was?

  • he is the beastlyist beast in the beastly world

  • Idc what anyone says about Rutgers. I hold season tickets year after year since before Leonard committed. He's the man and was the best player in the Big East during his graduating class. He's a legend and always played as a teammate and never as another selfish player looking for money. He's the man. Go Rutgers and I hope Leonard continues to do big things.

  • He's good but he is no Jacob Hester.

  • in college football there are alot of true fullbacks but when u get into the pros thats when they start transitoning u

  • No see ppl in case u havnt noticed there are technically no such things as RB and FB in college they switch them out alot brian leanard went into the pros hoping to stay a RB but they switched him to a fullback cuz they already had steven jackson

  • He grew up 40 mins from where i live and my gym teacher is his best friend...no lie

  • hes got the size of a FB and the speed of a RB = beast

  • I met him at a signing, and he was so down to earth and sweet. I love how he stayed at Rutgers for his senior year when he could have went to the pro's and made tons of money. Go RU!

  • best white running back ever

  • I have heard various 40 times for Leonard. I heard he ran a 4.49 at the Combine as well as 4.51 and 4.52, had a great 3-Cone time & a 34.5 inch vert was pretty stellar as well. It's ashame Leonard went to the Rams instead of a team like the Titans, Jets or Eagles who needed him more. He started 3 games last yr. for the Rams w/ 4 o-lineman out, Bulger,

    I. Bruce and even Holt for a game. He still managed a 100 yard game on 5.3 YPC and 3.9 YPC in that span overall. Not bad for a rookie! Go B-Leap!

  • fucker can jump, and hes white?

  • he can do all that plus hes a hottie blonde, blue eyed white boy

  • he should be a fullback

  • no he shouldn't he should be a RB like he is

  • no he should have been blocking for ray rice a true running back

  • ...he's a fullback, not a halfback

  • wat happened to white men cant jump?

  • RU forever!

  • can i download this from somewhere?

  • white boy gots hops

  • wow i had no idea he could jump that high! n im a rams fan !

  • is jumping over people a white running back thing hint* hint* (Sam McGuffie) but hes still good dont get me wrong

  • He runs and moves like a black guy...

  • i wish he coulda got drafted to a better nfl team..but at least he got drafted...hes one of the lucky ones in our area to make it that big...god i love him

  • brian leonard is the best rb ever known to man  i9 hope he wins a cuople of super bowl rings

  • lol ur a moron

  • HES A monster hes amazing

  • Brian was my favorite player in 2007 draft

  • was it supposed to be a fart at 2:23?

  • Nope, definitely Cum

  • Faster than a speeding bullet ... more powerful than a locomotive ... able to leap tall buildings in a single bound...

    yes, these are some of Brian Leonards warm-up exercises.

  • he probably freakin jumps over the line on the oklahoma drills!

  • thank you brian! <33

  • i would hate to have to takle him

  • i ownder how many times hes gotten wrecked doin that hurdle tho

  • what an amazing, special player. Thank you for all the great RU memories!!!

  • sick video

  • themeg11 , Maybe they just realized that RB is a piss poor paying position.

  • Ha, I'd like to see you try and play running back against a pee-wee team

  • I don't get it. Is that supposed to be an insult? Guys as large as I am just don't play RB, and for me it's just a lot more satisfying to put a hurting on the Quarterback.

  • Well then how big are you?

  • will everybody shut the fuck up about the stupid great white hope bullshit, he's not he first white guy to run fast and jump high their just aren't a lot of white running backs, and it doesn't matter

  • someones a little racie

  • yes it matters. there arnt a lot of white running backs. of course hes no the first white to run fast and jump hight. but hes one of the very fucking few white kids that can run fast enough and jump high enough for the nfl.

    people are so hyped about him because of how rare it is to see a white rb in the nfl..let alone the ncaa

  • wish the eagles took him.

    underrated in the draft this year cause he is a white rb

    hope he does well, just as long as he stops the jumping lol that will get him killed in the nfl

  • I think it had less to do with his skin color and more to do with him wanting to play rb when the teams want him at fullback due to his size. he is a good runner but yeah he should stop jumping. that will get your career ended in the nfl.

  • this guys gonna get a madden cover of him hurdling a player hahahah

  • He gets his first NFL start this weekend. It's the Big White Hope's time baby.

  • Laxbro18 said it all

  • GIANTS SHULDA TAKEN HIM WAT A PRESCENCE HE WULDA BEEN I SCREAMED WEN THEY PASSED ON HIM although i do lik steve smith, wats he gonna do behind jackson though, comon

  • that boy gets beasty...the white boy can run.

  • the my boy brian leonard giving the defenses hell in the nfl

  • im so glad the rams got him
