The Cincinnati Bengals are re-signing DT B.J. Hill, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. With the Steelers having a need at defensive tackle, Hill could’ve been a potential option for the Steelers.
Shortly after the news of Hill re-signing with the Bengals broke, Schefter reported that the Washington Commanders are signing former New York Jets DT Javon Kinlaw. Hill’s deal is worth $33 million over three years with $16 million guaranteed.
Kinlaw’s deal is reportedly worth $45 million over three years with $30 million guaranteed, and the contract value of those two deals show it won’t be cheap for the Steelers to address their need along the defensive line in free agency.
