Leo Cullen (born 9 January 1978) is an Irish rugby union footballer who plays Lock Forward for Irish club Leinster Rugby and Ireland.
He re-signed for Leinster after two seasons playing for Leicester Tigers during the 2005/06 and 2006/07 seasons. He made 45 appearances for Leicester—10 as captain—and was apart of the squad that won the EDF Energy Cup and Guinness Premiership in 2007.
