Ogunjobi (back) logged a full practice Friday and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi failed to practice to start the week after suffering a back injury in Week 5. However, he should be ready to return as a key member of the Steelers' defensive line. Through five games, Ogunjobi has tallied 12 total tackles and 0.5 sacks.

Ogunjobi (back) won't return to Sunday's contest against the Bills, per Steelers Senior Director of Communications Burt Lauten.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi suffered a back injury in the first half and won't return. In his absence, Chris Wormley and DeMarvin Leal figure to garner increased roles for the remainder of the contest.

Ogunjobi is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bills due to a back injury, Steelers Senior Director of Communications Burt Lauten reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi suffered the injury in the first half, but the extent of the issue remains unclear. He's played over 50 percent of the team's defensive snaps through the first four weeks of the season, so his absence will open up opportunities for Chris Wormley and DeMarvin Leal.

The Steelers signed Ogunjobi (foot) to a one-year deal Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi registered a career-high seven sacks last season with Cincinnati and was set to join Chicago on a three-year, $40.5 million deal until failed physical nullified the deal. The 2017 third-round pick offers plenty of defensive versatility -- which is a perfect for Pittsburgh's defensive schemes -- and will be a quality replacement for recently retired defensive tackle Stephon Tuitt.

Ogunjobi spent time over the last two days on a free-agency visit with New York, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi is looking for a new team to sign with this offseason after his previous three-year, $40.5 million deal with Chicago fell through due to a failed physical in March. The sixth-year defensive tackle failed this test due to issues with his surgically repaired right foot but should still be a desirable free agent for teams around the league in need of a starting-caliber run stopper. Ogunjobi accumulated 49 tackles and a career-high seven sacks over 16 games with the Bengals before suffering a foot injury in the team's wild-card round win over the Raiders in last season's playoffs.

Ogunjobi failed his physical with the Bears due to an ongoing issue with his surgically repaired right foot, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was reported that Ogunjobi agreed to a three-year, $40.5 million contract with the Bears earlier this offseason, though the deal was ultimately voided due to a failed physical. Ogunjobi suffered the foot injury during the Bengals wild-card round victory over the Raiders. General manager Ryan Poles noted that the Bears would be interested in pursuing Ogunjobi in the future, though it's unclear when he'll be healthy or which other teams may have interest.

The Bears announced Friday that Ogunjobi (foot) will not sign with the team due to a failed physical, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chicago had agreed to a three-year, $40.5 million contract with Ogunjobi, but the finalizing of the transaction was subject to a successful physical. It appears that Ogunjobi, who is coming off foot surgery, still has a few steps to go in his recovery. Once back to full health, the experienced defensive tackle will be free to explore further contract options.

Ogunjobi signed a three-year, $40.5 million deal with the Bears on Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi registered a career-high seven sacks last year with Cincinnati, but he had to be carted off the field due to a foot injury during the Bengals' wild-card win over the Raiders. The 2017 third-round pick is expected to be healthy and ready to contribute for Chicago by the time training camp rolls around.

The Bengals placed Ogunjobi (foot) on injured reserve Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ogunjobi was carted off with a foot injury during Saturday's wild-card win over the Raiders, and he'll be forced to miss the remainder of the season. B.J. Hill, Josh Tupou (knee) and Tyler Shelvin could see increased playing time for the remainder of the playoffs.

Ogunjobi injured his right foot during Saturday's wild-card game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
On the Raiders' first possession of the second half, Ogunjobi was slow to get up before needing a cart to get off the field. With Mike Daniels (groin) also leaving this game and Josh Tupou (knee) and Tyler Shelvin (coach's decision) inactive, the Bengals are down to D.J. Reader and B.J. Hill as healthy defensive tackles.
