The Facts: Leonard suffered a significant foot injury in Sunday’s 16-7 loss to Dallas in the Hall of Fame Game. He will visit a specialist today after undergoing tests on Monday in Cincinnati. The injury was initially characterized as a mid-foot sprain. Now, the diagnosis ranges anywhere from Leonard missing the rest of the preseason to being out for the year.
Diehards Line:As Enquirer staffer Joe Reedy suggests, the loss of Leonard would be bad news. He was clutch in third- and fourth-down situations last year while occasionally serving as a blocking back. Besides RB, Leonard was listed as the second-string fullback on last week’s depth chart. Leonard's injury leaves Cedric Benson and Bernard Scott as the only healthy running backs and Joe Tronzo as the only healthy fullback.
