Leroy Jenkins Pre-Draft Presser

[Jiggly_333]

1. With the "Mass and Ass" craze currently storming the Saints organization in the NFL, why did you decide on the NSFL instead of the NFL?

I felt that the NSFL had more to offer me. I think that the Saints organization is set with Drew Brees for at least a few more years and I wouldn't want to infringe on his situation. The NSFL is filled with new teams looking for players to help shape their identities and I saw it as an exciting opportunity to make my mark.

2. Do you think the difficulty in taking you down will lead to a Gronk-like level of injuries? (Opponents hitting you low)

I've always prided myself most on the strength of my legs. If I wasn't as big as I was, I might've been a kicker. I have seen some great players go down due to leg injuries, players like Bo Jackson and Christian Okoye, but I think that I'm sturdy enough to keep going. Knees are definitely a concern for running backs, but that's why I wear that tape every game to try to keep everything in place and out of risk.

3. Why do you like your steaks medium-rare and why is this the only correct answer?

You know, I don't actually eat too much steak or beef in general. I stick with birds and fish. I love chicken and turkey and I never turn down a nice cod. My mom raised me that way because of heart disease in our family, but I've sort of just taken it to heart. Sorry that that answer wasn't exactly what you expected, but it's just what I do.

4. When your career ends, what do you plan on pursuing?

I'd love to go up to the booth. I was a part of a weekly radio show back in high school (strangely enough, it was also with Dakota) and I thought I had a pretty good voice for it. I'd love to do it again when my ride is over.

5. Out of any lineman in this draft, who would you most like to run behind?

Definitely either Ben Longshaw or Angus Winchester. Ben, because I trust that, as a fellow Chicagoan, he'd have my back and Angus because I feel that his skill-set matches my ability.
