Leroy Bowers brings veteran size, special-teams grit, and a quiet safety-first edge to Ohio
In the 2025 season, Leroy Bowers is listed on Ohio’s roster as a senior safety/defensive back at 6-foot-0, 206 pounds, and he entered Ohio after previous stops at Cincinnati and Southern, giving him a seasoned, journeyman feel that coaches tend to love.[1][2][10] His value looks less like splashy stat-padding and more like reliability, physicality, and experience in the back end—plus a background as a highly regarded Ohio prep standout, which hints at real upside if he carves out a bigger role.[5][15]
