Ball-hawking Dayton safety with elite production and proven leadership
Leisring was a high-impact safety for Dayton, finishing the 2018 season with 90 total tackles, 3 interceptions, and 2 forced fumbles in 11 starts, while his 12 career interceptions tied for second among active FCS players that year. Beyond the box score, he stood out as a three-year starter and Campbell Trophy semifinalist, which signals the kind of dependable, high-IQ, culture-setting defender coaches love: assignment-sound, physical, and consistently around the football. If you need a proven back-end playmaker who brings toughness and credibility, he’s a strong fit.
