News

  • Set to return Friday

    Omenihu (knee) was activated from the PUP list Thursday and does not have an injury designation for Friday's Week 13 game against the Raiders.

    Analysis: Omenihu began the season on the PUP list following February knee surgery for a torn ACL. He was designated to return to practice Nov. 13 and is now set to make his 2024 debut. Omenihu's return should add vigor to the Chiefs' pass rush, as he logged 7.0 sacks over 11 regular-season contests prior to getting hurt last season.

  • Practices in full Tuesday

    Omenihu (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.

    Analysis: Tuesday was the first time Omenihu logged a full practice since being designated to return from the Chiefs' PUP list Nov. 13. The Chiefs waived backup defensive end Cameron Thomas on Tuesday, indicating that Omenihu is on track to make his 2024 regular-season debut Friday against the Raiders. Omenihu is in the final stages of his recovery from a torn ACL that he suffered during last season's AFC Championship Game against the Ravens.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Omenihu (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu is still working his way back from a torn ACL he suffered in the playoffs last season and remains on the reserve/PUP list. He's been practicing for the last nine days, but his 2024 debut will have to wait. Omenihu's next chance to play will be in seven days on Black Friday against the Raiders.

  • Still not at full capacity

    Omenihu (knee) was limited during practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Omenihu logged limited sessions last week after he was designated to return from the PUP list, but has yet to move to the 53-man roster. He'll likely need to practice in full by Friday at the latest, to return to the active roster and suit up Sunday against the Panthers.

  • Won't return for Week 11

    Omenihu (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bills, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu was designated to return from the Chiefs' reserve/PUP list Wednesday and practiced in a limited fashion throughout the week. However, he has yet to be activated to Kansas City's active roster and will remain out for Sunday's matchup. Expect Mike Danna and George Karlaftis to continue serving as the Chiefs' top edge rushers while Omenihu is sidelined in Week 11.

  • Unlikely to play Sunday

    Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Omenihu (knee) is unlikely to play in Week 11 at Buffalo, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu, who has been recovering from a torn ACL, was just cleared to return to practice Wednesday, so it won't be a huge surprise if he's not able to suit up for game action right off the bat. If he can't go in Week 11, his next chance to play would be in Week 12 at Carolina.

  • Returning to practice

    Kansas City designated Omenihu (knee) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu has only been out of pads for a little more than nine months after tearing his ACL during last season's AFC Championship Game at Baltimore, but it now looks like he has a legitimate chance to play in Week 11 at Buffalo. His status will be one to keep an eye on when the Chiefs release their official practice reports Thursday and Friday.

  • Expects return to practice soon

    Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that Omenihu (knee) is "getting close" to returning to practice, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu wasn't listed as a participant on the Chiefs' official practice report Wednesday, so it seems relatively safe to say he won't be suiting up for Sunday's game versus the Broncos. With that said, his coach's comments suggest he might have a chance to come back in Week 11.

  • Starting season on PUP list

    The Chiefs placed Omenihu (knee) on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu missed all of training camp as he continues his rehab from a torn ACL suffered in the AFC Championship Game against the Ravens last postseason. His placement on PUP knocks Omenihu out for at least the first four games of the season. George Karlaftis and Chris Jones will key Kansas City's pass rush while Omenihu gets healthy.

  • Heads to PUP list

    The Chiefs placed Omenihu (knee) on the active/PUP list Wednesday.

    Analysis: Omenihu is still recovering from February surgery to repair a torn ACL, an injury he suffered uring Kansas City's AFC Championship Game win over the Ravens. The expectation is that he'll miss at least the early portion of the 2024 regular season.

  • Gets knee surgery

    Omenihu (knee) underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair his torn ACL, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu suffered the ACL tear in the Chiefs' AFC Championship Game win over the Ravens. He'll face a lengthy recovery from surgery, leaving his Week 1 status in doubt for the time being. Before sustaining the knee injury, Omenihu was a key rotational edge rusher for Kansas City, tallying 31 tackles, eight sacks, three forced fumbles and two passes defensed over 14 regular-season and playoff games.

  • Goes on IR

    The Chiefs placed Omenihu (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu will move off the 53-man roster after he underwent surgery Tuesday to repair his torn ACL. With Omenihu out for Sunday's Super Bowl matchup with the 49ers, Felix Anudike-Uzomah should see increased playing time as the first edge rusher off the bench for the Chiefs.

  • Set to undergo surgery Tuesday

    Omenihu is set to undergo surgery to repair his torn ACL on Tuesday, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu tore his ACL during Kansas City's AFC Championship Game win over the Ravens two weeks ago and will now get surgery to repair it. The 2019 fifth-round pick will shift his focus to getting ready for next season, while Felix Anudike-Uzomah should see increased playing time in the Super Bowl in Omenihu's absence.

  • Suffers torn ACL

    Omenihu sustained a torn ACL during Sunday's win at Baltimore in the AFC Championship Game, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu was forced out of Sunday's contest during the second quarter, and while there was some optimism from the Chiefs ahead of his MRI on Monday, the defensive end's injury was unfortunately a severe one. Rookie first-round pick Felix Anudike-Uzomah should see an expanded role at defensive end in the Chiefs' Super Bowl matchup with the 49ers in the absence of Omenihu. The 26-year-old excelled as a rotational pass rusher while appearing in 14 total games in 2023 between the regular season and…read more

    Omenihu (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Ravens.

  • Leaves game with knee injury

    Omenihu (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Omenihu sustained the knee injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game. He walked to the sideline before going to the locker room with trainers. Omenihu had one sack before his exit.

  • Suiting up Sunday

    Omenihu (illness) is active for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Bills.

    Analysis: Omenihu didn't pop up on the injury report until Saturday, but he was expected to play based on an earlier report from James Palmer of NFL Network. The Texas product's presence should be a boost to Kansas City's edge depth in their divisional-round clash with Buffalo.

  • Slated to play Sunday

    Omenihu (illness), who popped up on the injury report Saturday, is expected to play in Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Bills, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The late addition to the injury report caused some concern for Omenihu, but it appears he'll be healthy enough to play in this road matchup. Omenihu finished the regular season with 5.5 sacks over the final six games, and he played 80 percent of the defensive snaps in the wild-card win over the Dolphins.

  • Five tackles in win

    Omenihu finished Sunday's 25-17 win over the Bengals with five tackles (three solo), including 0.5 sacks.

    Analysis: Omenihu combined with George Karlaftis to sack Jake Browning in the fourth quarter for a seven-yard loss, which resulted in a Bengals punt on the next play. Omenihu has now recorded at least half a sack in five straight games and is up to a career-high 6.0 sacks on the season.

  • Roster exemption lifted

    Omenihu's six-game suspension was lifted Oct. 13 and he's been added to Kansas City's active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old was arrested for suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence back in January of 2023. Omenihu is expected to make his first appearance for the Chiefs this Sunday after the team signed him to a two-year, $16 million contract this offseason, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Throughout his five-year NFL career, Omenihu has recorded 67 total tackles, 11.5 sacks and 11 tackles for loss.

    Analysis: While with the 49ers, Omenihu was arrested in January of 2023 for suspicion of misdemeanor domestic violence. Turning 26 later this month, Omenihu inked a two-year, $16 million deal with the Chiefs in free agency.

    Analysis: Omenihu's injury details are unclear, but he'll remain sidelined until he's fully healed. The 25-year-old is poised to take on a significant role in the Chiefs' defensive-line rotation, but he'll now need to focus on his recovery so that he can return to the field.

    Omenihu is set to sign a two-year, $20 million max value deal with the Chiefs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu lands in Kansas City and will provide depth along the Chiefs' defensive line next season. The 25-year-old defensive end finished the 49ers' 2022 regular season with 20 tackles (seven solo), 4.5 sacks, one pass defensed and one forced fumble. Omenihu is a versatile pass rusher who could make an impact if he is able to see increased playing time in his new home.

    Omenihu (oblique) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Eagles, Eric Williams of FoxSports.com reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu played 16 snaps in the 49ers' divisional-round win over Dallas but picked up an oblique injury during the contest that caused him to be a limited participant during Wednesday's and Thursday's practices.

    Analysis: Omenihu didn't record any counting stats across 16 snaps (15 defensive) during the 49ers' divisional-round win over Dallas, and he appears to have suffered an oblique injury during the contest as well.

    The Texans traded Omenihu to the 49ers for a future late-round pick Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Despite playing 198 defensive snaps across six appearances for the Texans this season, Omenihu has only produced 11 tackles. The former fifth-round pick registered three sacks his rookie season and four sacks during the 2020 campaign, but he hasn't been able to record a sack this year. He will look for a fresh start with the 49ers, who are currently dealing with multiple injuries to their front seven.

  • Helps himself preseason Week 2

    Omenihu recorded two sacks and recovered a fumble in Saturday's 20-14 win over the Cowboys in preseason Week 2, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu was in position on the Cowboys' first series, falling on a fumble created by Jacob Martin which led to Houston's only offensive touchdown. He later beat a tight end off the edge for a sack, then logged another after a stunt for inside rush. With positions up for grabs along Houston's new four-man front, Omenihu is a riser heading into the final preseason game Saturday against the Buccaneers.

  • Resumes practicing

    Omenihu (hip) returned to practice Monday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

    Analysis: Omenihu spent roughly five days sidelined from practice, but he has now managed to return without any setbacks. After having missed last weekend's preseason game against the Packers, Omenihu could be ready to suit up by the time Saturday's exhibition match against the Cowboys rolls around.

    Omenihu is nursing a lower-body injury and is absent from practice Thursday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

    Analysis: Coach David Culley said Omenihu isn't expected to be out long, but he was noncommittal about the defensive end's chances of returning by next week. That being the case, it can be expected that Omenihu will sit out Saturday's exhibition matchup against the Packers.

  • Ready for Week 11 return

    Omenihu (leg) is active for Sunday's matchup against New England.

    Analysis: The 2019 fifth-round draft choice sat out Houston's Week 10 road loss to the Browns, marking his first missed game of the campaign. The Texas product dressed for 14 contests as a rookie, and he's continued to fill an important rotational role on defense in his sophomore season as well. Omenihu has logged two sacks this season while fielding a workload of 29.5 defensive snaps per game, and he has at least one QB hit in seven straight appearances.

  • Out ahead of Sunday

    Omenihu (leg) will not play in Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Omenihu did not travel with the team to Cleveland, which reinforces the point he will not play. The defensive end did not practice all week, but he will aim to try and take the field against the Patriots in Week 11.

  • Highly questionable for Sunday

    Omenihu (leg) is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Browns.

    Analysis: Omenihu didn't practice all week, so it's tough to see a path to play this weekend. The Texans believe he has a chance, however, and we'll know the final verdict about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. If he's forced to sit out, Carlos Watkins could pick up some extra reps at defensive end.

  • Suffers leg injury

    Omenihu is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars with a leg injury.

    Analysis: Omenihu registered one hit on the quarterback before exiting during the first half. Carlos Watkins should see more work as a rotational defensive end in his absence.

  • Another sack in loss

    Omenihu had one tackle and one sack in Sunday's 28-21 loss to Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Working in a rotation at defensive end, Omenihu recorded a sack for the second straight week. Omenihu, Carlos Watkins and P.J. Hall are rotating at both end spots, getting double the available snaps when J.J. Watt is not on the field.

  • Records sack in loss

    Omenihu had two tackles and one sack in Sunday's 33-16 loss to the Ravens in Week 2.

    Analysis: Omenihu recorded his first sack of the season in the third quarter, snuffing out a Ravens red-zone trip and forcing them to kick a field goal. He started Week 1 but came off the bench against Baltimore behind P.J. Hall. He'll be part of the rotation at defensive end all season.

  • Fills rotational role as rookie

    Omenihu recorded 13 tackles, three sacks, two pass breakups and two forced fumbles over 14 regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: Omenihu averaged 32 defensive snaps per game, and his playing time ticked up after J.J. Watt's mid-season pectoral injury opened up an opportunity for the rookie. Houston invested a 2019 fifth-round draft pick in Omenihu, a local kid from Houston who played college ball at Texas, and he developed nicely. The Texans used several players at the defensive end spot opposite Watt, so expect Omenihu to be in the mix for a starting job in 2020.
