Special-teams grinder with early-rotation utility upside
Leaf’s best selling point is his all-games, all-angles value: as a freshman at Hawaii in 2012, he appeared in all 12 games primarily on special teams, logged five tackles, forced a fumble, and even handled a kickoff return, which points to toughness, trust, and willingness to do the dirty work.[1] He looks like a fit for a staff that values effort, coverage-unit reliability, and developmental depth at running back rather than an instant feature back.[1]
