We’ll soon say goodbye to one once labeled “Playoff Lenny”

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are planning to release former Super Bowl hero Leonard Fournette. ‘Playoff Lenny’ had a short tenure in Tampa and despite its discouraging finish, it was not without some sensational highs.

Leonard Fournette was picked up by the Buccaneers just before the start of the 2020 season. The Jacksonville Jaguars had decided that they were going to move on from the former seventh overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft. The Buccaneers were fresh off an offseason of bewildering excitement. Fans were gobsmacked by the team’s new addition of Tom Brady and the new look the Buccaneers rolled out paying homage to their classic uniforms with more modern touches.
