The Cedric Ogbuehi Era has begun as the Bengals bid farewell to one of their most celebrated players and leaders in franchise history.
Andrew Whitworth, who has played the third most games ever on the Bengals offensive line, has played his last one and is now the starting left tackle for the Los Angeles Rams, according to multiple reports.
After Whitworth broke the bank Thursday on what has been reported as a three-year deal for $36 million with $15 million guaranteed, the Bengals are banking on Ogbuehi to rebound from last season’s benching at right tackle and reach the potential he flashed on the left side for Texas A&M when they made him their first-round pick in 2015.
