After playing half of his eight-year NFL career for Rex Ryan, safety Jim Leonhard couldn’t say no when he had a chance to join the New Orleans Saints and new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan this spring.

Getting to play for Rex Ryan’s twin brother was pretty much a no-brainer for Leonhard, who had met Rob Ryan a few times when he was with the New York Jets.

He just didn’t know how similar they were — until he got into the meeting room with Rob Ryan for the first time last month.

“Personality-wise, they’re very similar,” a smiling Leonhard said Thursday after the Saints’ third OTA of the spring. “It’s scary.”
