The Steelers make another smart free agent signing with defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed former Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals defensive lineman Larry Ogunjobi to a one-year contract on Tuesday, adding a starting-quality player to a unit that was short on proven veterans after the recent retirement of Stephon Tuitt.

Ogunjobi was a 3rd Round draft pick by Cleveland in 2017. He played four seasons there, starting 46 games over his final three years. In 2019, Ogunjobi was involved in the infamous fracas with Pittsburgh quarterback Mason Rudolph during which Browns defensive end Myles Garrett clobbered Rudolph with his helmet. Ogunjobi shoved Rudolph to the ground during the altercation, earning a one-game suspension for his actions.
