With the departure of Andre Smith, the conventional wisdom is that Cedric Ogbuehi is the Bengals’ new right tackle. At least that what he’s thinking after a rookie season he played in the last five games after rehabbing that torn ACL from his last snap for Texas A&M.
“That’s what I’m assuming. Not really a surprise,” Ogbuehi said Friday from Dallas, where he’s working out in the offseason.
The Bengals were extremely impressed with how Ogbuehi did once he came off the physically unable to perform list (PUP) and started practicing and they believe he has the potential to be an elite player for a long time.
