From the article

Riley Leonard played the entire first half against the Falcons and I think we can all agree, we've seen enough of that. Every interview I see with the guy, I like Leonard a lot. Seems like a good kid and I appreciate his athleticism with the ball in his hands when he has an opportunity to pull the ball down and run. But he had a golden opportunity to play well and really push Anthony Richardson for the QB2 role a week ago and he failed to do so.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

QB2 battle over; Leonard's poor week 2 showing ended his push for backup role.

Backup quarterback played the entire first half against the Falcons in preseason week 2 and the source indicates the performance was poor enough that 'we've seen enough of that.' Leonard had a golden opportunity to push Anthony Richardson for the QB2 role but failed to do so; while the source likes Leonard personally and appreciates his athleticism when pulling the ball down to run, his preseason performance was not competitive.
