Buffalo, NY – April 25, 2025. Buffalo Bills fans are getting a taste of the rollercoaster that comes with having Larry Ogunjobi on their roster, just weeks after his arrival from the Pittsburgh Steelers. The defensive tackle’s disruptive antics are already stirring drama in Orchard Park, echoing his turbulent past.
Ogunjobi, signed to a one-year, $8.3 million deal in March, brought a reputation for intensity but also volatility. His 2024 season with Pittsburgh—41 tackles, 1.5 sacks in 15 games—fell short of expectations, and a six-game NFL suspension for PED violations in 2025 has only amplified tensions.
Larry’s a spark plug, but sometimes it’s too much, a Bills source told ESPN.
In a recent team meeting, Ogunjobi reportedly clashed with veteran center Mitch Morse over practice reps, demanding a louder role in defensive calls. The exchange, described as heated, left teammates stunned and sparked whispers of locker room friction, per Buffalo News.
Morse deserves respect—Larry crossed a line, a teammate said anonymously.
Ogunjobi’s history in Pittsburgh wasn’t without incident, from sideline spats to inconsistent play, leading to his release to save $7 million in cap space. Now in Buffalo, his bold personality—seen in a cheeky X post taunting Jets fans—continues to polarize, even as he aims to anchor the Bills’ line.
He’s got to focus on football, not drama, NFL analyst Matt Miller noted.
The Bills, chasing a Super Bowl with Josh Allen, value Ogunjobi’s 7.5 career sacks and versatility at 30 years old. Yet, his fifth team in eight seasons raises red flags about his ability to gel, especially after public feuds with coaches in Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
I’m here to win, not make friends, Ogunjobi told WGR 550.
As Buffalo navigates a competitive AFC East, Ogunjobi’s talent is undeniable, but his disruptive antics risk derailing team chemistry. Fans, accustomed to the Bills’ tight-knit culture, brace for a wild ride with a player whose intensity could either fuel a playoff run or ignite chaos.
