Jim Leonard, another front runner for the Giants DC job, shares his coaching philosophy Leonard, the current DB/Pass Game coordinator for the Broncos, played in the NFL for 7 seasons (2005-14) with the Bills, Ravens, Jets, Broncos, Saints and browns. Also coached at the collegiate level at his alma... mater Wisconsin, serving as DC and interim head coach from 2016-2022. A bright young football mind.show more

He was a great @nyjets - QB of defense

"Leonhard", not Leonard

Giants? He's coming home to GB waaay before Giants

Leo Chenal free agent 💀

My #1 choice. Really believe this is a future Jesse Minter/Brian Flores in-waiting

I loved his defense at Wisconsin

would be a tremendous hire, a great candidate for many of the programs out there! Go look at his Wisconsin defense. top 10 every year. Hasn't been the same since!

I hope the Giants hire Leonhard

“Interim Head Coach” for seven seasons…is that right?

Could've worded it better. Was an interim head coach at one point but the majority of his time at Wisconsin was either as DC or DB coach.

Appreciate the response. You have a lot to look forward to this year, congrats.

Read the book Collision Low Crossers, you will become a huge fan of Little Jimmy Leonhard

@WilderCollin Jim Leonhard.

He was amazing with Wisconsin

If he leaves Denver he’s going to GB. His family still lives in Madison, Wisconsin. No way he leaves for NY.

He’s a jet

👍🏿🏈

THIS is the ideal guy!

@BigBlueBanter @nickfalato someone check on @DanSchneierNFL he’s about to get overheated listening to Leonard.

Sorry that "W" means he's a frontrunner with the Packers. Plus he would have been hired by GB before Haley but turned it down because he thought he was getting the Badgers HC job.

really hoping we can pry him away

Jim would coach for Packers over NY. Hes from WI

Just win

If I looked at him walking down the street, I would would have never thought he was a former NFL player.

10 seasons

Harbaugh to Leonhard

Coach speak.
