The Kansas City Chiefs can officially move on from Orlando Brown Jr. now, as he has finally signed with a team during free agency.

This one came as the biggest surprise. I mean, sure, we kind of knew there was no way he would be back based on the Chiefs' decision to sign Jawaan Taylor as a left tackle.

But, the team he signed with surprised Chiefs fans all across the world.

Per Tom Pelissero, Brown Jr. is finalizing a four-year, $64.092 million front-loaded deal with the Bengals that includes an over $31 million signing bonus — which is the largest ever for an o-lineman.

I think most thought he would be going to a team like the Bears, or someone like that. This shocked me, for sure.
