Leroy Jones (born September 29, 1950) is a former American football defensive end for the San Diego Chargers in the National Football League. In 1980, Jones teamed with All-Pro's Fred Dean, Gary "Big Hands" Johnson, and Louie Kelcher on the defensive frontline as the Chargers led the NFL in sacks (60). The foursome was locally nicknamed the Bruise Brothers, coined from a popular act at the time, The Blues Brothers. Don "Air" Coryell's Chargers teams of that era are mostly remembered for its high-scoring, pass-oriented offense. The Chargers won the AFC West from 1979–1981 and made the playoffs in 1982.
