Ogbah finished the 2024 regular season with 49 tackles (27 solo), including 5.0 sacks, two pass defenses (including one interception) and one forced fumble across 16 games. Ogbah tied veteran Calais Campbell for third-most sacks on the Dolphins behind Zach Sieler (10) and Chop Robinson (six). Ogbah has logged 5.0 sacks in back-to-back seasons, and his 49 combined tackles were his most since his rookie year in 2016 with the Browns (53). Ogbah enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and should draw plenty of interest from teams looking for a veteran pass rusher.

Ogbah finished the 2024 regular season with 49 tackles (27 solo), including 5.0 sacks, two pass defenses (including one interception) and one forced fumble across 16 games. Ogbah tied veteran Calais Campbell for third-most sacks on the Dolphins behind Zach Sieler (10) and Chop Robinson (six). Ogbah has logged 5.0 sacks in back-to-back seasons, and his 49 combined tackles were his most since his rookie year in 2016 with the Browns (53). Ogbah enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent and should draw plenty of interest from teams looking for a veteran pass rusher.
Ogbah finished Sunday's 20-3 win over the Browns with five tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble. Ogbah sacked Dorian Thompson-Robinson midway through the third quarter of Sunday's game, stripping the ball in the process that was recovered by Da'Shawn Hand. It was Ogbah's first credited sack since Week 12 against the Patriots, and the 2016 second-round pick is up to 4.5 sacks through 15 regular-season games.
Ogbah (biceps) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Ogbah practiced in a limited fashion both Wednesday and Thursday, but he upgraded to a full workload Friday, suggesting he's moved past his biceps injury in time for Sunday's contest. Expect the 30-year-old to start opposite Chop Robinson as part of the Dolphins' top edge rushing duo in Week 8.
Ogbah (biceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Despite logging three limited practice sessions last week, Ogbah was inactive for the Dolphins' Week 7 game against the Colts. Given that, he may need to increase his practice participation over the next two days in order to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Through the first five games of the regular season, Ogbah has tallied 18 tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one interception.
Ogbah (biceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts. Ogbah has been limited at practice all week due to a biceps injury. He was tagged as questionable ahead of Sunday's contest but he will have to observe the game in street clothes, and his next chance at suiting up will be against the Cardinals on Oct. 27. Tyus Bowser will likely get the start at linebacker alongside David Long, Jordyn Brooks and Chop Robinson.
Ogbah recorded four tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Dolphins' win over the Patriots on Sunday. Ogbah's sack was his second of the season and first since the Week 1 opener. The veteran edge rusher is logging heavy snaps in Miami with Jaelan Phillips (knee, IR) done for the year and Bradley Chubb (knee, PUP) still waiting to make his season debut. Ogbah is up to 18 tackles (12 solo), including the 2.0 sacks, five QB hits and one interception through five contests.
Ogbah recorded six total tackles (three solo), an interception and a pass defensed in Monday's 31-12 loss to Tennessee. Ogbah was able to compile a season-high six stops while also securing his first interception of the year, picking off Will Levis in the first quarter. The linebacker has now produced 14 total tackles (eight solo), an interception and a pass defensed over four games this season.
Ogbah recorded four tackles (two solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 20-17 win versus the Jaguars. With Jaelan Phillips limited by an Achilles issue, Ogbah was thrust into a bigger role in Week 1 than he's been accustomed to recently and parlayed his 40 defensive snaps into his first sack of the season. He's still probably not worth IDP consideration in most cases.
The Dolphins re-signed Ogbah to a one-year deal Tuesday. Ogbah will officially return to Miami after having worked out for the team Monday. The 2016 second-round pick logged 19 tackles (seven solo), including five sacks, across 15 games last season, and he will look to contribute as a rotational pass rusher once again during the upcoming campaign.
