follow the link it explains it.
Bengals inked the New Kicker for a 3 year deal.
They say they are giving him a shot to unseat Nugent.
Financially I don't understand.
Article explains they'd have 600k in dead money this year, + cash owed Obraski if they cut Nugent.
I'd love to see real competition at Kicker.
Adding Stats
Here are some good stats on him. Per Cincy Jungle.
Obarski holds a slew of Concordia records including:
Field goals made (44)
Career points for a kicker (250)
Single game record for field goals made, (set four times during career, three times in 2014, once in 2013).
Second most points for a kicker in a single game (14) and the third most points in a game for kicker (13).
He also holds a school and Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference record for longest field goal (59, vs Augustana) and delivered NCAA Division II record-long field goals twice during career (59 vs Augustana, 56 vs Upper Iowa).
Obarski was one of few kickers selected to play in the Senior Bowl, where he impressed scouts by making a 49-yard field goal. CBS Sports ranks Obarski as the draft's eighth-best kicker.
