The smaller Leonte Carroo gets, the bigger he plays.

Carroo has dropped nine pounds from the bloated 221 that he weighed in 2016, and hopes to shed four more.

Less has certainly been more in his second training camp.

After a lost rookie season — he couldn’t even make the game-day roster late in the year — Carroo re-dedicated himself to his craft. And it shows.

He had several catches Sunday, including one in which he out-muscled Michael Thomas across the middle. He also had an apparent touchdown wiped away by a questionable officiating call.
