“And he’s off!!!!! Indianapolis take care of him!” Walding captioned.

The Colts drafted Leonard in the sixth round after his lone season at Notre Dame.

Now that he is attending the Colts' rookie camp, Leonard had great things to say about tight end Tyler Warren after their first practice together. He connected with Warren, who was a first-round pick by Indianapolis, and said that he is the kind of player quarterbacks love to throw to.

Leonard added that he’s seen Warren's skills firsthand, remembering when their college teams faced in the playoffs. Leonard’s Fighting Irish beat Warren’s Penn State Nittany Lions in the Orange Bowl 27-24.
