Texas Ex Omenihu Suspended Six Games
The former Houston Texans pass-rusher and star player at the University of Texas, Charles Omenihu, is currently a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. However, when the season begins, he won’t be “with” them.
Omenihu violated the NFL’s personal behavior rules, earning a suspension that will last for his team’s first six regular season games in 2023.
The transgression? Omenihu was embroiled in a domestic abuse issue as a 49ers player last year.
In a statement released in January, the 49ers stated, “We are aware of the matter involving Charles Omenihu and are in the process of gathering further information.”
In January, the NFL also issued a statement.
The NFL said in a statement that “the matter will be reviewed under the league’s personal conduct policy.” “There is no change to his status.”
Now that a choice has been made, Omenihu will be delayed.
Before the suspension starts, he is allowed to take part in all preseason drills and games.
During his four seasons in Austin, Omenihu amassed 115 total tackles, 30 tackles for loss, 16.5 sacks, two fumble recoveries, and four forced fumbles.
Omenihu has recorded 67 total tackles, 11.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, and six passes defensed in 61 career NFL games, including 10 starts.
