Charles Omenihu proved invaluable to the 49ers after being acquired on trade deadline day midway through the 2021 season. During his year-and-a-half stint with the team, he recorded an eye-popping 13.3 percent pressure rate. That was higher than every single 49ers defender except for Nick Bosa.
What made him so special on his run with the 49ers was the versatility he provided by being able to line up anywhere on the defensive front. Following the departure of Arden Key last year, Omenihu found his stride by slotting into an interior pass-rushing role in 2022.
He terrorized guards and centers all season long to the tune of 62 pressures, which ranked second among all 49ers defenders.
