Former Georgia football linebacker has hit his huge payday.
Just last season the Chicago Bears, who drafted former Georgia football linebacker Leonard Floyd number nine overall in 2016, declined his fifth-year option. Over his four years with the Bears, Floyd started 54 games, made 154 tackles, with 26 of those tackles going for a loss. He also had 18.5 sacks and 44 quarterback hits.
The Los Angelos Rams decided to give Floyd a chance to redeem himself and to live up to the first-round pick expectations. He rewarded their faith with 10.
