The Cincinnati Bengals are adding to their defense, having agreed to a two-year deal with former Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Oren Burks.
Burks's pact with the Bengals is reportedly worth $5 million, and he'll collect an average of $2.5 million per season over the course of the deal, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. It has the potential to be a bargain for Cincinnati, who are looking to cut costs in order to pay some of their own stars. Meanwhile, Burks, coming off the Super Bowl win with Philadelphia, is expected to have the opportunity to compete for a starting role.
