He was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the sixth round of the 2003 NFL Draft.[1] He had stints with the Jaguars, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, and Tennessee Titans until August 2007, when he was cut. He is the brother of Hall of Fame offensive tackle Jonathan Ogden.[2]
Ogden is a 2002 graduate of Howard University[3] with a Bachelor of Science in Finance, with emphasis on construction and cost accounting. He was also part of their NCAA Division I football team. In 2005, he participated in a program through the University of Southern California on project development and construction developed specifically for NFL players hoping to prepare for their careers after football.[4]
After retiring from the NFL, Ogden formed a company called Kayden Premier Enterprises Inc., an earth-moving company based out of Baltimore, Maryland.[5] After going out of business in 2012, he received financial aid from the Gene Upshaw Players Assistance Trust Fund.[6] He has since become a public speaker and has been involved with the National Youth Football Organization in a coach-like role.[7] While working on expanding his entrepreneurship, Marques did speaking small speaking events between the years of 2013 to 2016. During this phase of his life, Marques took on other roles like being a birthday clown and a private football coach. Eventually, Marques got his first formal speaking event where he spoke at Miller Mott College in Wilmington, North Carolina, for their 100th commencement graduation.[8]
