Source: Free agent Larry Ogunjobi opts to return to Steelers
Free agent defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi is headed back to the Steelers on a three-year deal that will pay him $21.75 million in the first two years, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday.
An AFC North journeyman, Ogunjobi spent the 2022 season with the Steelers after signing a one-year, $8 million deal with them in free agency.
Ogunjobi, brought in to help replace Stephon Tuitt, was often on the practice injury report for a variety of lower-body ailments, including knee, back and toe injuries. He missed only one game, but he was rarely healthy. Even so, Ogunjobi was a crucial piece of the run defense.
