Arizona State linebacker Vontaze Burfict has agreed to terms on a contract with the Cincinnati Bengals, a source with knowledge of the situation said Saturday.
Burfict, once a highly rated draft prospect, wasn't picked in the 2012 draft, but he has found an NFL home nonetheless.
A poor performance at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis in February and reports of a failed drug test hampered the former Sun Devils star. But the Bengals, known to give troubled players second chances, swooped in to add him.
Burfict collected 228 tackles (22.5 for loss), seven sacks and four forced fumbles in three seasons at Arizona State, according to the school's official website.
