Leonard Fournette weighed in 12 pounds lighter than he did at the NFL scouting combine last month at LSU's pro day on Wednesday.

Fournette raised some eyebrows at the combine when he referred to his extra poundage as "water weight."

"I think some of them wanted me to just see if I could get down to that size," Fournette said. "Some people had concerns about me at 240. ... So I just wanted to show them I could stay on course and be disciplined and do what I have to do."

When asked what he did to drop the weight, Fournette said it was nothing special.

"My mom's been on me about what I've been eating," he said. "Basically I wanted to show everybody that I can lose the weight. It really doesn't matter. I'm gonna play good at any weight I want to."
