Daniels signed a one-year, $9.1 million deal with the Lions for the 2019 season and finished out his contract.

The Bengals signed Daniels to a one-year, $2.7 million deal last offseason and brought him back on another one-year deal worth up to $2.5 million this past March.

In 2020, Daniels appeared in 11 games for the Bengals and recorded 17 tackles and no sacks.
