Leonard signed with the Saints on Wednesday, ESPN.com reports. Leonard arrives in a banged-up backfield, as both Khiry Robinson (arm) and Pierre Thomas (shoulder) have logged multi-game absences to date. In addition, rookie back Edwin Baker sustained a concussion this past Sunday, which leaves Mark Ingram, Travaris Cadet, and Erik Lorig as the sole healthy options. If the 30-year-old Leonard makes a mark, it will likely occur in a pass-catching role due to 993 career receiving yards versus 828 on the ground.
