NFL Combine, most analysts had projected Ogbuehi to be a first or second-round selection.

Cincinnati Bengals

The

non-football injury list. They were taking extra precaution as he recovered from his ACL injury.[11] On December 6, 2015, Ogbuehi made his regular-season debut during the Bengals' 37–3 victory over the Cleveland Browns. He played the last five games of the season and also appeared in the Bengals' 16–18 AFC wildcard round loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers
.

In 2016, he started training camp, competing against Jake Fisher and Eric Winston for the vacant right tackle position left by Andre Smith. Ogbuehi ultimately won the job, starting the regular season as the Bengals' right tackle. He earned his first career start in the Bengals' season-opening 22–23 win over the New York Jets. Ogbuehi started the next 11 games at right tackle before being inactive for a Week 13 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.[12] He made his first start at left tackle in Week 16 after struggling on the right side, moving long-time starter Andrew Whitworth to left guard for the game. He gave up two sacks that game and suffered a torn rotator cuff, ending his season.[13]

In 2017, after Whitworth departed to the Los Angeles Rams in free agency, Ogbuehi was named the starting left tackle for the Bengals.

On May 2, 2018, the Bengals declined the fifth-year option on Ogbuehi's contract, making him a free agent in 2019.[14] He only played in two games in 2018, and was a healthy scratch for most of the season.
