T Cedric Ogbuehi

(How do you feel about practicing when it’s going to be the mid to upper 90s?) – “It’s going to be different for sure, but it’s Miami. It’s going to prepare us for what’s to come so it’s good.”

(Why did you choose to play here?) – “What they’ve built so far, even last year. Building on what they did last year. Obviously I was with the Jets so I saw it firsthand. They got something special going on here, and they have the pieces. I’m just here to add on to that and to go as far as we can.”

(How did playing in Mike LaFleur’s offense prepare you to come over to this similar type of offensive system?) – “I love it. It’s literally the same kind of scheme, obviously different nuances, but it’s prepared me a lot. I’ve been helping out some of the guys, too, because it’s new to some of them so it helped a lot.”

(How does it suit your skillset?) – “It does. It’s all about running off the ball. It’s meant for guys who can move, so it’s really for kind of my skillset

(Were you surprised the Jets released you when they did after you signed the contract?) – “No, not really. It’s a business. They have a lot of tackles there, and they drafted a guy, too. So I wasn’t surprised. I wasn’t even there. I was in Dallas the whole time, so I wasn’t even there. But I wasn’t surprised.”

(How do you feel your strengths are at this point in your career? What do you feel you do the best?) – “Being in Year 9 I’ve seen it all, done it all – pass protection, run blocking, screens, out in space. I think kind of just a combination of everything. Once you’ve been playing for so long, you’ve kind of seen it all.”
