Report: Kansas City Chiefs to re-sign veteran DL Charles Omenihu
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Kansas City Chiefs intend to re-sign veteran defensive lineman Charles Omenihu to a one-year contract worth a maximum of $7,000,000.
Omenihu has been a reliable presence on the Chiefs' front four since initially joining Kansas City as a free agent in 2023.
He performed well in his first season with the Chiefs but suffered a serious knee injury that kept him from playing in Super Bowl LVIII.
Despite that setback, Omenihu mounted an impressive comeback and found success in limited action during Kansas City's 2024 campaign, managing to tally one sack in the playoffs after a late-season return from the Chiefs' injured reserve list.

With Omenihu officially under contract for another season, Kansas City's front office has officially solidified the Chiefs' defensive line depth in free agency, even if only by not losing one of their top contributors to another team.
Kansas City's move to sign Omenihu came just a day after the Chiefs agreed to terms with defensive lineman Marlon Tuipulotu.
