Cleveland Browns: Larry Ogunjobi believes in aliens, but not Bigfoot

The Cleveland Browns DT doesn’t agree with Baker on Bigfoot

The always entertaining Nathan Zegura had Cleveland Browns defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi as a guest on a segment he calls the “Hot Seat.” Being sponsored by Fifth Third Bank, the segment gives players 53 seconds to answer a round of quick questions.

This time, Zegura asked Ogunjobi about subjects such as his favorite color (with the options being orange and brown), his favorite holiday, and his opinion on both aliens and Bigfoot.

Ogunjobi quickly said yes to whether or not he believes in extraterrestrials. But when asked about the presence of a sasquatch in our world, he said no and followed it up with a good laugh.

For those who have followed the Browns for the past couple of seasons, the reason for the laugh is obvious. In 2019, Cleveland quarterback Baker Mayfield let it be known that he’s a believer in the elusive creature.

On an episode of ‘Building the Browns’, Mayfield not only said he believes in Bigfoot, but called Myles Garrett “weird” for being into dinosaurs rather than Bigfoot.

"“I mean, Myles is weird because he’s into dinosaurs, like those are long gone. Bigfoot’s still running around.” — Mayfield via the Cleveland Browns official Twitter account"

From there, Mayfield even said he was going to spend some time searching for him. Later, he was seen wearing a hat with a sasquatch on it at press conferences.

Ogunjobi later answered more questions, including who he wanted to portray him in a movie. He immediately thought of Denzel Washington but said he’s old so that won’t work — eventually picking Michael B. Jordan.

A third-round pick in 2017, Ogunjobi was the first player from Charlotte to be drafted in the NFL. He’s now in the final year of his rookie deal and has 159 career tackles and 12.5 sacks. Right now, he has 25 tackles and 0.5 sacks for the 2020 season which has been a bit of a letdown for him.
