They brought in Ryan Kerrigan for a visit and didn't get a deal. Ingram was available for a long period of time as well and the Bengals have cap space. Signing any of the three would have added a veteran presence that has a history of success. 

He'll be 32 and has been to the playoffs 6 of the last 8 years. He's already made ~$95m in his career, so he's got his money, now he just wants to win. Hence the low low contract. He wanted to go somewhere he can potentially compete for SBs now, so he wasn't coming here.

Former All-Pro edge rusher Justin Houston reached agreement on a one-year deal worth up to $4 million with the Baltimore Ravens, per sources. Houston turned down significantly more money from other teams in order to pursue a championship with the Ravens, per source.
