The veteran had a $40+ million deal voided with the Bears earlier this offseason due to a failed physical related to his surgically repaired foot. However, he could potentially fill a big hole for the Steelers on the defensive line if he’s healthy. 

Ogunjobi was expected to receive a three-year, $40.5 million deal with $26.35 million of that guaranteed. 

He’s also visited with the Jets this offseason. 

Ogunjobi, 27, is a former third-round pick of the Browns back in 2017. He played out the final year of his four-year, $3.90 million contract and made a base salary of $997,794 for the 2020 season. 

Ogunjobi was testing the open market for the first time in his NFL career in 2021 when he signed a one-year deal with the Bengals. He signed a three-year, $40.5 million deal with the Bears but unfortunately had it fall through after the team failed him on a physical. 

In 2021, Ogunjobi appeared in 16 games for the Bengals and recorded 49 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss and seven sacks.

We have him included in our Top Available 2022 NFL Free Agents list.
