Bears sign DT Larry Ogunjobi from Bengals for 3 years, $40.5 million: report
Ogunjobi has 21.5 sacks in five seasons.As new Bears general manager Ryan Poles continues to rework the roster, the team is getting younger — and possibly better — on the defensive line.
The Bears agreed to a three-year, $40.5 million deal with former Bengals defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi in the opening hours of free agency Monday, NFL Network reported. He’ll get $26.4 million guaranteed.
Poles already cut defensive tackle Eddie Goldman and is not expected to re-sign veteran Akiem Hicks. Hicks (32) and Goldman (28) are both older than Ogunjobi (27).
