Leon Hall_Nominees_1080x1920

A savvy, versatile cover man who roamed almost invisibly between the outside and the slot, Hall played in 121 games, most by a Bengals cornerback in this century and third all-time despite missing 23 games with a pair of torn Achilles. His 26 interceptions hold the same positions in the record book during a run that saw him named consensus co-team MVP with cornerback Johnathan Joseph in the 2009 AFC North sweep generated by the NFL's fourth-ranked defense. That's the year he had 24 passes defensed to go with six picks after a season he led the NFL with 24 passes defensed. From 2007-2012, Hall defended 90 passes, third best in league.

In the game to go to the 2012 playoffs, he scored the Bengals only touchdown on a 17-yard pick-six in the 13-10 win in Pittsburgh. Two weeks later in Wild Card Game in Houston, his 21-yard pick-six put them on the board.
