Steelers release defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi for savings

The Pittsburgh Steelers have released defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi after two seasons with the team. This decision saves the Steelers about $7 million but incurs $3 million in dead cap. Ogunjobi had a $3 million bonus due on March 15, which would have kept him with the team for the 2025 season. He will now enter free agency. During his time with the Steelers, Ogunjobi recorded six sacks and 16 pressures in 15 games last season. The team may now consider drafting a defensive tackle in the first round.
