Released days before the beginning of the 2020 NFL season, Leonard Fournette quickly signed on to a title contender, worked his way into a productive role, and the rest is history. These are the top plays, highlights, and most memorable moments of “Playoff Lenny’s” legendary Super Bowl run with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers!
Fournette shared playing time for much of the regular season with Ronald Jones, trying to find his rhythm and consistency within a new offense. Towards the latter half of the year, he got his groove going as he slid into more of a starting role in the backfield. Once the postseason began, “Playoff Lenny” was unleashed and a new legend was born.
The LSU product earned the new moniker thanks to each of the strong performances he displayed throughout each of Tampa Bay’s 4 postseason matchups. After 367 RUSH YDS during the entire regular season, he racked up 300 in those 4 meaningful contests alone with 50+ yards and a touchdown in each.
By the time the Super Bowl came around, there was no looking back for the speedy yet physical runner. Once the clock hit all zero’s, Playoff Lenny became Lombardi Lenny and his legacy was cemented in NFL history forever.
