The Bengals signed linebacker Oren Burks to a two-year contract on Monday. Financial terms were not revealed.

A third-round draft pick by Green Bay in 2018, he spent four seasons with the Packers, two with the 49ers and one with the Super Bowl champion Eagles.

Burks, who turns 30 on Friday, has appeared in 108 games (17 starts) and has 217 tackles (eight for loss), two sacks, three passes defensed, one interception, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

It’s a homecoming for Burns, a Miami native who was drafted in the first round by Pittsburgh in 2016 out of the University of Miami.

Burns, 29, has recorded four interceptions, 38 passes defensed and 199 tackles in 90 games (39 starts) with the Steelers (2016-19), Bears (2021) and Seahawks (2022-24).
