Former Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Jonathan Fanene has left the Queen City for the chance at a title in Foxboro with the New England Patriots. Fanene’s deal is reportedly for three years and $12 million with a signing bonus of just under $4 million.
Fanene, is 6-foot-4, 290 lbs. and 29 years old and a native of American Somoa. He had 6.5 sacks in 2011 and 6 sacks in 2010.
He is a legit run-stuffing end who can rush the passer from either inside or outside, and he is versatile and physical.
