The fullback, who will turn 32 in November, has played for the Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans and Ravens in his nine-year career. He qualified for the Pro Bowl last season but did not play because of the game's situation in the week between the conference championship games and Super Bowl XLVII, which the Ravens won.
Among other suitors, the New York Giants are still in play for Leach's services while the Giants weigh the season-opening availability of fullback Henry Hynoski, Conor Orr of the Newark Star-Ledger reported Thursday.
