His contract makes it unlikely that he will be picked up on waivers. Once an FA, I’d expect him to select a contender.
Las Vegas Raiders
I mean we let Smith play the other week, I’d take a washed Leonard any day that it’s needed. As long as deablo, Spillane, and masterson are healthy they should always get the first nod, but our depth at lb is weak since week 1
Saw him play against the Patriots, my dude was looking awful. Whiffing on tackle after tackle, one of the worst LBs in the league now because of his injury but I hope he recovers soon.
As a man with a back injury I’d say no he’s useless
already solid playing LB unit
Then why add him lmfao.
No, we don't need that.
We need him
No. Have you seen him play recently?
He's not the same guy since his back injury.
too many neck/back surgeries. sadly I think his injuries have robbed him of his explosiveness.
What’s up with you guys and names. Someone mentioned Suh the other day as well. There is a reason these guys are free agents.
I say melvin ingram. Guy had 6 sacks last year and is 34 rn. Could help us

how bout no
This isn't madden
Absolutely not worth his contract. Jump over to colts boards, dude is disgruntled about his diminished role on defense and losing playing time and has been toxic in the locker room. He's lost a step and had an injury riddled 2022.
If he's available in free agency sure, but ain't about to take on that contract
A change of scenery might do him good, but that price ain't right
Colts fans are saying he's washed at this point. No. Just no.
Whoever takes him is on the hook for $6 million. No thanks
Literally damaged goods. Bad back. No way we pay that $$$. It’s actually quite the sea change that our most pressing issue isn’t defense.
Two serious back surgeries recently. If he's got some juice left, why not give a squeeze?
Wow what a disappointing turn for Leonard. He went from a top-3 LB to washed in one season.
Colts fans say he lost more than 3 steps so probably not worth it
Maybe if he clears waivers but you do not want that contract
Too many consecutive injuries and missed time for multiple COVID’s. He’s washed.
Man…do some homework first.
Yeah, let’s give him a contract like Chandler Jones. What could go wrong?
He's owed 6 million. Spillane and Delablo are playing well. It's not happening
I knew this would be posted here as soon as I saw the news. God our fanbase loves washed up names.
Look at all the reports about him. I wouldn’t be super hyped to get him. 50% snaps played, is still not right after a surgery, problems with the coaching staff and not to mention the contract. If he was the guy 3 years ago I’d love it but now I’d be nervous. If he clears waivers I’d be interested for a buy low tho.
According to this tweet from Field Yates he is under contract through to 2026.
Remainder of 2023: $6.11m; 2024: $16.1m; 2025: $19m; 2026: $19.6m.
That’s a lot of money to spend on someone who has had some injury problems for the last 18 months.
He has a $6.5 injury guaranteed for 2024 along with cap hits of $16.1, $19 and $19.6 million...I don't envision anyone claiming him. He was an All Pro Linebacker for 4 years, but after suffering a back injury last season, a lot of folks say he lost a step and for whatever reason, Colts weren't playing him. Regardless, he should clear waivers and then be able to sign anywhere. AP would love a LB of his caliber, but there are a lot of contending teams who could use a LB.
