Marshall Leonard (born December 29, 1980 in El Paso, Texas) is an American soccer defender and midfielder, who recently played for the New England Revolution of Major League Soccer.

Leonard attended high school in Columbus, Georgia, earning letters at both Shaw High School and Brookstone School. He went on to play college soccer at the University of Virginia from 1998 to 2001. Leonard started a total of 89 games at UVA, every one that he played in, while scoring one goal and 13 assists.

Leonard was selected 45th overall in the 2002 MLS SuperDraft, and signed to a developmental contract. After spending his first year entirely on the bench,^[1] Leonard came on strong at the end of 2003, appearing in ten games, including five starts. He developed into a consistent starter in 2004, and when Joe Franchino went down with an injury, Leonard took his spot at left back; he finished the year with one assist in 22 starts. In 2005, while playing most of the year at the left wing spot, he scored a goal and an assist. He was waived by New England in 2007.
