The Chicago Bears have made their first move of NFL free agency by landing former Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi.
With the transition to a 4-3 defense, the Bears have locked down a dominant 3-technique in Ogunjobi, who is coming off a career year with the Bengals in 2021. And it sounds like Chicago is paying him accordingly.
According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, Ogunjobi’s contract is slated to be a big one. It’s a three-year deal worth $40.5 million, including $26.35 million guaranteed.
