The Bears have another key piece for their defensive line. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network tweets that the Bears are expected to sign defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi. Brad Biggs of The Chicago Tribune adds that the contract is worth $40.5MM over three years, with $26.35MM guaranteed (Twitter link). 
After four seasons with the Browns, Ogunjobi signed a one year, $6.2MM deal with the Bengals in March of last year. He was a huge part of their defensive overhaul and went on to record 49 tackles and seven sacks in 16 games. The investment in Ogunjobi – along with the likes of Trey Hendrickson and Chidobe Awuzie – certainly paid off, as the Bengals won the AFC North for the first time since 2015. Unfortunately, his season was brought to a halt with a right foot injury before the divisional round.
Ogunjobi saw a 68% snap share on defense during his time with the Bengals. He finished 2021 with 49 tackles, seven sacks, 12 total tackles for loss, and 16 quarterback hits.
Thank God, that should help our OL problems.
Well… probably not since he plays DL
What is this…OLINE godd@mn
Moving to the 4-3 from the 3-4 means you need fat guys up front who can’t create sacks.
He had 7 sacks last year.
meant don’t need fat guys…
Seems like a very nice signing. 7 sacks and 16 QB pressures from the interior is damn good. He was the biggest piece from one of the better D lines in NFL last year and you are buying his prime years of 28-31.
Great signing!
