MARCH 12 • RIGGOSRAG.COM
Inks deal with Washington Omenihu and the Commanders agreed on a one-year, $4 million contract Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Impact Omenihu will join a Washington defense that has undergone quite the facelift this offseason. The 28-year-old played in all 17 regular-season games with Kansas City in 2025, matching his career-high 28 total tackles (15 solo), including 3.5 sacks. Now with the Commanders, Omenihu could slot in as a starting defensive end opposite of Tim Settle (foot) in 2026.

Chiefs free agent profile: Will Charles Omenihu return for another run in KC? Charles Omenihu's free-agent profile is a perplexing one with reasons to both re-sign the veteran edge rusher and to let him walk.
MARCH 10 • ARROWHEADADDICT.COM
Productive on one-year deal Omenihu finished the 2025 season with 28 tackles (15 solo), including 3.5 sacks, over 17 games.
Impact Omenihu signed a one-year deal to stay in Kansas City, a decision that resulted in an increase in production that will be useful in negotiating his next contract. As a rotational defensive end behind starters George Karlaftis and Mike Danna, he logged 2.0 more sacks than in 2024 and 22 more tackles. He did so while playing the same number of games as he had in the past two seasons combined, proving that the 28-year-old still has the durability to survive an NFL season. Omenihu will enter the 2026 season as a free agent, and it is unclear if he will seek another contract with Kansas City or if he will take his talents elsewhere.

Returning to K.C. Omenihu has agreed to a one-year deal with the Chiefs, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Impact Per the report, Omenihu's one-year pact is worth a maximum of $7 million. The 27-year-old is coming off a 2024 regular season in which he logged just six tackles and a sack in six games, but when healthy and available, Omenihu is capable of adding pass rushing depth to the Chiefs defense.
