Buffalo Bills lock in DT Larry Ogunjobi for one year with $8.3M deal | NFL News
The Buffalo Bills are making bold moves to fortify their defense, and their latest addition is set to bring both experience and impact to the squad. Just a day after making waves with the acquisition of star pass rusher Joey Bosa, Buffalo has now secured another key piece for their defensive front.
Bills land Larry Ogunjobi on one-year deal
In a move that underscores their commitment to defensive dominance, the Bills are set to sign veteran defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi. According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Larry Ogunjobi, recently released by the Pittsburgh Steelers, has agreed to a one-year, $8.3 million deal with Buffalo. The contract also includes an additional $1.7 million in performance-based incentives, with a guaranteed payout of $8 million.
Larry Ogunjobi, known for his physicality and disruptive presence on the defensive line, brings a wealth of experience to Buffalo. Last season with the Steelers, he recorded 41 tackles, five tackles for loss, and 1.5 sacks across 15 games. Over his three-year tenure in Pittsburgh, he solidified his reputation as a formidable interior defender.
What makes this move particularly intriguing is that it marks Larry Ogunjobi’s first stint outside the AFC North. Having previously played for the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals before joining the Steelers, the seasoned lineman will now take his talents to Buffalo, a team with Super Bowl aspirations and a defense looking to make a statement.

As the season approaches, all eyes will be on how this revamped unit performs under the bright lights of the NFL.
