As they continue preparations for Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, the Kansas City Chiefs have made two roster moves.
According to the NFL’s official Wednesday transaction report, the team has placed defensive end Charles Omenihu (knee) on its Reserve/Injured (injured reserve) list. This was an expected move. Omenihu left the AFC Championship game against the Baltimore Ravens after just six snaps — the fifth of which was a strip-sack of Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson that ended a Ravens’ drive. After the team’s 17-10 victory, Omenihu expressed confidence that he would be able to play in the Super Bowl — but the next day, tests revealed he had sustained a season-ending ACL tear.
