Bengals trade for Leonard
Big C learned moments ago that the Cincinnati Bengals completed a rare player-for-player trade earlier today. The Bengals traded defensive tackle Orien Harris to the St. Louis Rams in exchange for running back Brian Leonard. The trade was comfirmed by Leonard’s agent Mike McCartney.
The 6-foot-1, 229-pound Leonard is a third-year pro and was the Rams’ second-round draft pick in 2007 (52nd overall). He played in 16 games with seven starts as rookie, rushing for 303 yards on 86 carries (3.5-yard average) and catching 30 passes for 183 yards.
It is anticipated that Leonard will play a backup role to starter Cedric Benson in short-yardage and nickel situations.
