Jordan Leggett
Jordan Kristopher Leggett (born January 31, 1995) is an American former professional football player who was a tight end in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Clemson Tigers. He was selected by the New York Jets in the fifth round of the 2017 NFL draft.
Leggett attended Navarre High School in Navarre, Florida, where he played high school football. He was rated by Rivals.com as a three-star recruit and committed to Clemson University to play college football.
As a true freshman at Clemson in 2013, Leggett played in 10 games, recording 10 receptions for 176 yards and two touchdowns. As a sophomore in 2014, he started seven of 11 games and had 14 receptions for 161 yards and one touchdown. As a junior in 2015, he was a finalist for the John Mackey Award.
Leggett's Clemson teams won four bowl games, three BCS/New Years Six bowls, and played in two national championship games, winning one in 2017. Leggett won the Orange Bowl as a freshman against Ohio State, the Russell Athletic Bowl as a sophomore against Oklahoma, the Orange Bowl as a junior against Oklahoma, and the Fiesta Bowl as a senior against Ohio State. Leggett's only bowl loss was in the 2015–16 National Championship Game against Alabama.
On January 9, 2017, Leggett was part of the Clemson team that defeated top-ranked Alabama in the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship by a score of 35–31. In the game, he recorded seven receptions for 95 yards.
As one of the top tight end prospects, Leggett received an invitation to play in the 2017 Senior Bowl, but declined to participate. He was one of 19 collegiate tight ends to receive an invitation to the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana. Leggett opted to only perform the vertical jump, broad jump, three-cone drill, and short shuttle at the combine. He finished fourth among tight ends in the short shuttle, eighth in the three-cone drill, tied for eighth in the vertical jump, tied for tenth in the bench press, and tied for 11th among his position group in the broad jump. On March 16, 2017, Leggett attended Clemson's pro day, along with Deshaun Watson, Mike Williams, Carlos Watkins, Artavis Scott, Wayne Gallman, Ben Boulware, Cordrea Tankersley, and six other players. He performed the rest of the combine drills he skipped at the combine for the scouts and team representatives from all 32 NFL teams. At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Leggett was projected to be a third or fourth round pick by the majority of NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked the fourth best tight end prospect by NFL senior analyst Gil Brandt and was ranked the seventh best by NFLDraftScout.com and NFL analyst Mike Mayock.
Leggett was selected by the New York Jets in the fifth round (150th overall) of the 2017 NFL draft. He was the tenth tight end selected.
On May 18, 2017, the Jets signed Leggett to a four-year, $2.86 million with a $282,052 signing bonus.
