Leonard Myers Dies; Former New England Patriot Was 38

Sad news out of the sports world today, as former NFL cornerback Leonard Myers has passed away at the age of 38.


Reports of Myers’ death were confirmed by TMZ just moments ago.


Myers played his rookie season with the New England Patriots in 2001, the year that a young Tom Brady led the team to a Super Bowl victory over the St. Louis Rams.



Myers went on to play for the New Orleans Saints, New York Jets, and Detroit Lions, but he would never again experience the sort of on-field success he enjoyed in that first year in New England.


Myers experienced a string of bad luck after leaving football in 2005, following a brief sojourn in the CFL.


That same year, he made headlines for selling his Super Bowl ring on eBay for $ 32,600.


Myers had reportedly been battling cancer for several years at the time of his death.


Before being drafter by the Patriots, Myers made a name for himself at the Univesrity of Miami as the team’s standout defensive back.




Leonard Myers


A three-year starter for the Canes, Myers aided in the program’s historic rebound.


The team went 5-6 his freshman year and 11-1 his senior year.


Sadly, Myers would not experience the same level of success in the pros.


In interviews, he often expressed his frustration with the Patriots coaching staff, who decided at the last minute to deactivate him prior to Super Bowl XXXVI.


Myers says he was told he would start in the game, and it wasn’t until pregame warm-ups that Bill Belichick and company decided to remove him from the roster in favor of activating another offensive lineman.



Those who knew Myers best say his disappointment at not realizing his boyhood dream of being able to take the field at the Super Bowl lingered for the rest of his days. 


Most recently, Myers worked as he wide receivers coach at New Mexico Highlands University in 2015.


Today, both Patriots and Hurricanes football fans are mourning Myers on social media.


Though he may not have distinguished himself in the highly competitive world of the NFL, fans and teammates say his spirit and cn-do attitude made him a player they’ll never forget.

Herschel Walker -- Leonard Fournette Is Better Than I Was In College

Z STAFF


EXCLUSIVE

0930-walker-fournette-tmz-instagram-01LSU superstar Leonard Fournette just got the ultimate compliment from Herschel Walker — who just told TMZ Sports he thinks Leonard is a better college running back than he was back in the day!!!!


Of course, Walker is one of the greatest college football players of all time — winning the Heisman Trophy in 1982 during an insane season at Georgia. 


So, with Fournette playing out of his mind this season — and getting tons of comparisons to Walker — we went straight to Herschel for his thoughts.


“He’s better than I was,” Walker says … noting that Fournette is the clear frontrunner for the Heisman. 


Herschel says he’s extremely impressed with Fournette’s athleticism AND his toughness — “He’s like a fullback because he can take punishment and keep on going.”


But Walker says there are two other RBs blowing his mind this season — Derrick Henry from Alabama and Nick Chub from Georgia. 


“I’m happy to see them play! People have been discounting running backs the past couple of years. These guys are bringing back the position.” 


As for Fournette — Walker says the guy definitely has the talent to play in the NFL, but shouldn’t consider leaving college early to get there. 


“It’s a bad idea to talk about leaving early, just wait and your time will come.”
