About Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard's got one of the more interesting backstories you'll see on a rookie quarterback card. This Colts signal-caller actually took theater classes at both Duke and Notre Dame, where he apparently nailed roles like King Henry and Richard III in Shakespeare plays. The guy's also known around campus for doing spot-on impressions from movies like The Water Boy and The Hangover, which shows he's got personality beyond just the football field. Leonard's rookie cards are already catching attention from collectors who love quarterbacks with unique stories, especially ones landing with established franchises like Indianapolis. Keep an eye out for his numbered parallels and autographed rookies, since quarterback cards with this kind of character backstory tend to have staying power.
Adjusting to a new role is nothing new for Leonard, who took theater classes at Duke and Notre Dame. "I played King Henry and Richard III in a Shakespearean play," he said. "I'm kind of known for my Bobby Boucher accent around there. Water Boy. That's my go-to. I did some other stuff like The Hangover and 22 Jump Street."

Dad’s Take on Riley Leonard
Look at this kid sitting there like he's waiting for his mom to pick him up from practice! "All business" my foot – he looks like he'd rather be anywhere else than taking football photos. And what's with that haircut? Looks like he stuck his finger in an electrical socket before the photoshoot!
