One of the earlier leaks that we saw on the Nexus 5 was the FCC filing, which actually came in two varieties. There was a CDMA model that passed through the FCC, which we assumed would be a Sprint variant of the device. We assumed Sprint, because Google doesn't seem to trust Verizon with Nexus devices anymore, and Sprint has been a good Nexus partner in the past.
Now, uber-leaker @evleaks is putting it out there that the Nexus 5 will indeed be coming to Sprint; and, to sweeten the pot a bit, @evleaks has added in another image of the upcoming device. Unfortunately, the image is really just a different perspective on the images we've already seen and doesn't exactly add anything new to the info pool.
There are some indications that we'll be getting more info on the Nexus 5 during today's "A Morning with Google+" event, but we'll have to see about that. @evleaks was also the source that claimed the Nexus 5 would be released this Friday, November 1st, so if that is true, Google is running low on time before announcing the device.
