Examining the ACL tear suffered by Chiefs’ Charles Omenihu — what’s the timetable?

The Kansas City Chiefs did not leave their AFC Championship victory unscathed. As they begin preparations for Super Bowl LVIII, the team will be without defensive lineman Charles Omenihu, who suffered a torn ACL against the Baltimore Ravens.

Omenihu was surely motivated to go against his former team, the San Francisco 49ers, in the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, he is going to miss more than just championship Sunday.

Following surgery from a torn ACL, return to play will be at least nine months, but potentially longer.
