Ugoh was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the second round of the 2007 NFL Draft, after the Colts gave up a first-round pick in 2008 for the chance to move up in the 2007 draft and select him.[2] He took over as the starting left tackle after Tarik Glenn retired during the offseason. The Colts waived Ugoh on September 8, 2010.[3]

On December 10, 2010, the Lions worked Ugoh out[4] and then signed him the next day to take the roster spot of linebackerIsaiah Ekejiuba, who was placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury.[5] Ugoh's signing was seen as insurance if starting right tackle Gosder Cherilus was unable to play in the Lions' week 14 game against the Green Bay Packers due to a knee injury.[6] He was released on August 14, 2011.
