If I place two nFETs in series, and I know what the leakage current
should be when one of them is off, what can I expect the leakage
current to be when they are both off?
should be when one of them is off, what can I expect the leakage
current to be when they are both off?
It seems to me that it should be somewhat better than 1/2, but I don't
really know what it should be. Does anyone have a good estimate?

You are not putting resistors in series; more like constant current
sources.

Leakage current will be that of the lowest leakage device up to its
breakdown voltage. Think about it.
