As the Buffalo Bills gear up for the 2025 NFL season, Larry Ogunjobi stands out as a vital player on their roster. At 31, with nine years of experience, Ogunjobi's 2024 season with the Pittsburgh Steelers saw him contribute 41 tackles and 1.5 sacks, despite a late-season groin injury that sidelined him for two games. His cap hit for 2025 is set at $4,106,684, highlighting his value to the team.
However, Ogunjobi faces a six-game suspension for violating performance-enhancing drug protocols. His return will be critical, especially if starting defensive tackle DaQuan Jones continues to struggle as he did in 2024. Ogunjobi possesses the versatility to impact both the pass rush and run defense, and with the Bills' defensive line depth, he can rotate effectively with players like Ed Oliver and Greg Rousseau. The pressing question remains: how will Ogunjobi acclimate post-suspension, and can he regain his past form?
