Former Arizona State University linebacker Vontaze Burfict has signed a free agent contract with the Cincinnati Bengals.
Previously thought of as a first round draft choice, Burfict went undrafted after reportedly failing a drug test, along with other behavioral issues off the field.
Burfict also registered a 4.9 in the 40, the slowest of all linebackers at the combine.
The Bengals did not draft a linebacker this year, and could use depth at the position behind Rey Maualuga.
Burfict spent the last few weeks before the draft trying to revamp his reputation, but did not hear his name called over the weekend at the draft.
