Chiefs Keep Charles Omenihu On PUP List
3 months agoThe Kansas City Chiefs are keeping pass-rusher Charles Omenihu (knee), who tore his ACL in the AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens, on the Physically Unable to Perform list to begin the 2024 regular season with hopes of a November return. Omenihu was never expected to be ready for the start of the season after suffering a devastating injury late in the postseason. Any help the 27-year-old pass-rusher can give the Chiefs' defensive line later in the year will be welcomed. His absence will put more on the shoulders of the team's top pass-rushers, Chris Jones and George Karlaftis. Omenihu, a former fifth-rounder by the Houston Texans in 2019 out of Texas, had a career-high seven sacks, 28 tackles (18 solo), five tackles for loss, 11 QB hits and two forced fumbles in 11 games during the regular season in 2023 in his first year in KC.
