Kansas City Chiefs defender lets his former team know exactly how he feels after beating them in the playoffs
Last season, or last offseason, rather, one of the sneakier moves the Kansas City Chiefs made, was the signing of Charles Omenihu, the former Houston Texans and San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman, who could play outside every down, and occasionally inside on obvious passing downs, helping out Chris Jones a bit.

Last season, or last offseason, rather, one of the sneakier moves the Kansas City Chiefs made, was the signing of Charles Omenihu, the former Houston Texans and San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman, who could play outside every down, and occasionally inside on obvious passing downs, helping out Chris Jones a bit.
It was somewhat of a cheap deal, and Omenihu could prove himself and play a huge role on a championship team. Meanwhile, the Chiefs were getting one of the most underrated pass rushers in the league. The fit was like a glove. Unfortunately, Omenihu was heartbroken last season when he got injured in the AFC Championship against the Baltimore Ravens, and he was not able to play in the Super Bowl.
He's now back from that injury, fully recovered, or 90% as he would say, and after a great game against the Texans on Saturday, if he stays healthy, and the Chiefs keep winning, he will be able to play this year's Super Bowl.
But this last win was a special one for him. He has always been vocal about how the Texans organization did him wrong. And, all we really have is his word to go off of, as there isn't really any evidence. But, we know that he now hates the Texans. And, hey, whatever makes him play better, right?
"How ironic," Charles Omenihu tweeted after the win, with a few extra laughing emojis.
The picture he quote tweeted was from the local Houston newspaper, and it had a picture of him standing and yelling after he sacked C.J. Stroud. So, yes, it is ironic.
According to Next Gen Stats, Stroud was pressured on 51.2% of his dropbacks (21 of 41) and was sacked eight times by the Chiefs defense, his 2nd-highest pressure rate faced in a game this season, which is just crazy to think about. And Charles Omenihu was a big reason why, as he had two pressures on the day and one sack.
He got his get back, as the kids say, against his former team.
