Leon Sandcastle caught out attention on Super Bowl Sunday. The fictional NFL Draft prospect played by Hall of Fame cornerback Deion Sanders was the star of one of the day’s best ads. We’ve been talking about Leon Sandcastle ever since? Which team will draft Leon Sandcastle? Well,he’s going to make an appearance this week at the NFL scouting combine, according to multiple sources within the league.
Makes sense as Sanders is a NFL Network analyst. But wait there’s more. We even have a Leon Sandcastle profile page on the NFL’s official home of the web. check it out after the jump. But I’ve already forgotten what Leon Sandcastle was selling? the league itself? Or more Leon Sandcastle?
You can’t spell “incredible” without Leon. Part-man, part-mouthpiece, Sandcastle talks the talk, walks the walk, then talks some more. Simply put: he’s a highlight reel come to life. Mind-numbing athleticism. Instincts that would make migrating salmon envious. Wonderlic-approved intellect combined with championship-producing intangibles.Sandcastle has it all. And he likes to let you know it.
Often compared to an “ugly Deion Sanders,” Sandcastle literally came out of nowhere to become the top prospect of the 2013 Draft. Well, actually, he came from a small school called Primetime University. But since no one can find PTU, no pre-Combine footage of the 6’1″ superstar-to-be exists. This has led to rumors that Leon may be some type of professional ringer looking for one last payday. Some have even suggested Leon might be Deion Sanders in disguise
