Rob Ryan is responsible for managing the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive line, but this offseason, he’s taking a step to manage his own waistline with Lap-Band surgery.

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan, who underwent the same procedure before the 2010 season, revealed his twin brother’s plan last week at the NFL Annual Meeting in Palm Beach, Fla., according to USA Today.

Cowboys coach Jason Garrett didn’t comment on his defensive coordinator’s decision to have the procedure, but he said Rob Ryan has been in the office and isn’t expected to miss any time during the offseason program, minicamp or training camp.

Last year, Rex Ryan suffered from a complication related to the Lap-Band procedure following a loss to the Broncos, causing him pain and prompting the team’s medical personnel to evaluate the coach near Denver International Airport, where paramedics also were called to the scene.

“Sometimes with the Lap-Band, you get indigestion,” Rex Ryan told The Denver Post. “All along, I knew that was the case. However, our medical staff didn’t want to take any chances. Once I got to the airport, I felt better. It was no big deal. Believe me, the loss to the Broncos hurt a lot worse than this did.”
