Orlando Brown Jr. Finalizing Four-Year Deal With Bengals
2 years agoFour-time Pro Bowl left tackle and Super Bowl champion Orlando Brown Jr. is finalizing a four-year, $64.092 million front-loaded deal with the Cincinnati Bengals on Wednesday night that includes over a $31 million signing bonus, which is the largest ever for an offensive lineman. The Kansas City Chiefs surprisingly let Brown walk in free agency after he helped them win the Super Bowl last season, instead replacing him with Jawaan Taylor. It's a huge bonus for the Bengals' offensive line and quarterback Joe Burrow, as the 26-year-oLD Brown is easily one of the league's best blind-side protectors. Protection for Burrow has been an issue for the Bengals, but Brown is a massive upgrade.
