Rising Star Josiah Leonard: 2026 Top High School Prospect

Josiah Leonard is a defensive back at Fairfield High School in Ohio who plays with physicality and ball skills. Last season: 48 tackles, 12 pass breakups, two interceptions, and two forced fumbles.

The 2026 prospect has drawn interest from Toledo, Miami (Ohio), and Cincinnati. He's also a member of the National Honor Society with a 3.6 GPA—the kind of student-athlete profile that appeals to programs valuing both production and academics.
