Ogunjobi, 30, will join newly-signed defensive star Joey Bosa on one-year deals in Buffalo. The Bills, who made it to the AFC Championship last season, are still looking to get over the hump and beat the Kansas City Chiefs. They now have two prominant veterans to assist in those efforts.
As for the Steelers, the moved on from Ogunjobi, freeing up $7 million in salary cap space. With Keeanu Benton, they already have an option to replace him at defensive tackle. They’ve also been very interested in the 2025 NFL Draft, and their most likely first-round pick will come from the defensive line position, with names like Kenneth Grant and Walter Nolen being top prospects projected to land in Pittsburgh.
