The Cincinnati Bengals have added a former Super Bowl champion to their defense ahead of Week 3.

Veteran defensive lineman Lawrence Guy agreed to a deal with the Bengals on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Guy spent the last seven seasons as a starter with the New England Patriots. He won a Super Bowl with the team in 2018. The 34-year-old was a productive player for the Baltimore Ravens for two years prior to that, which landed him a 4-year, $20 million contract with the Patriots.

A seventh-round pick by the Green Bay Packers in 2011, Guy has been extremely dependable throughout his career. He has appeared in 14 or more games in every season since 2014.

Guy had 38 total tackles while playing in all 17 games for the Patriots last season.

Though he is no longer in his prime, Guy could prove to be a valuable depth piece for the Bengals while they deal with injuries. One other top AFC team hosted guy for a visit last month, so he has had some interest in recent weeks.
