Cincinnati Bengals get Orlando Brown Jr. for 4 years, $64 million

Four-time Pro Bowl offensive tackle Orlando Brown Jr. is signing a four-year $64 million deal with the Cincinnati Bengals that includes a signing bonus of over $31 million, the highest ever for an offensive lineman, sources told ESPN.

Brown and the Kansas City Chiefs couldn't agree on a long-term contract last season, so he played the season as their franchise player, earning about $16.6 million.

Brown, who turns 27 in May, was acquired by the Chiefs in a 2021 trade with the Baltimore Ravens. He was the starting left tackle for every game except one in his two seasons with the Chiefs.
