give somebody a lead

I'm meeting someone who might give me a lead on another case.

He had a 31-yarder early in the third period to give them a 21-10 lead.

Let me give you a lead I don't have time to follow up on.

So you'll be able to give somebody a lead if I don't show up back here.

"The people from the community were able to give us a lead as to who that individual might be."

That little run gave us a good lead on them.

At least it gave her a lead she could follow.

Once I was given a lead to interview someone outside a small town.

We are well placed to give a strong lead to others.

It has given a clear lead to other member states as well.
