Sad news: The kansas city chiefs head coach has been suspended after a clear indication that he is having an affair with his key player’s wife.
(AP) — KANSAS CITY, MO When the Kansas City Chiefs play the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, they intend to use their surprisingly stingy defense to counteract the suspension of pass rusher Charles Omenihu, who missed the first six games of the regular season.
Omenihu will return to the starting lineup this week at defensive end, according to Chiefs coach Andy Reid’s Monday statement.
It is anticipated that he will play some snaps against their AFC West foe, but it is unclear how many and in what circumstances.
Reid stated, “I’m kind of looking forward to seeing him get in there.” Reid’s team returned to practice on Monday after an extended break following their victory over the Denver Broncos last Thursday night. One of those things, I’m not sure if he’ll be able to come in and play the entire game. I believe we let him get going and kind of ease him back in there. Observe his performance.
Omenihu was given a two-year, $16 million contract by the Chiefs during the summer, despite their knowledge that he would probably be suspended.
According to the San Jose Police Department, he was a 49ers player the previous season when police were called to his San Jose residence on a domestic abuse report. Officers were told by a woman claiming to be Omenihu’s girlfriend that he had “pushed her to the ground during an argument,” even though she had refused medical attention and there were no obvious wounds.
He ultimately received a six-game suspension from the NFL for breaking its personal conduct rules.
Omenihu, who played in all 17 games and started three for San Francisco last season, finished with four and a half sacks. He was still eligible to go to training camp. Prior to starting his ban, he also made appearances in Chiefs preseason games.
“He returned here. He is in excellent physical condition. Reid stated, “It’s just a matter of getting him back in there.” worked extremely hard and maintained good physical health while absent. All that needs to happen is to reintegrate and get back into the routine.
