The Cincinnati Bengals have signed Orlando Brown Jr. to a four-year contract worth $64 million, according to ESPN. Brown, a former offensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens, will join the Bengals for the upcoming NFL season.

The deal was announced by Bengals head coach Zac Taylor, who praised Brown’s offensive skills and experience. “Orlando is a proven performer on the field and a leader in the locker room,” Taylor said in a statement. “He brings a wealth of experience to our offensive line.”

Brown, who is 25 years old, has played in the NFL for four seasons. He was selected by the Ravens in the 2018 NFL Draft and quickly established himself as one of the league’s top offensive tackles. In 2020, he was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career.

The Bengals hope that Brown will help solidify their offensive line, which struggled at times during the 2020 season. With quarterback Joe Burrow expected to return from injury and a talented group of skill players, the Bengals are hoping to make a run at the playoffs in 2021.

Brown expressed excitement about joining the Bengals and praised the team’s coaching staff and front office. “I’m looking forward to being part of a winning culture in Cincinnati,” Brown said. “I can’t wait to get started and help this team reach its goals.”
