Chiefs DE Charles Omenihu and Seahawks WR D’Wayne Eskridge each suspended 6 games

Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Charles Omenihu and Seattle Seahawks wide receiver D’Wayne Eskridge were each suspended six games by the NFL for violations of the league's personal conduct policy, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

This came hours after the NFL suspended New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara for three games after he got into an alleged fight before the Pro Bowl in 2022.

Omenihu's situation likely stems from his Jan. 24, 2023, arrest, five days before the NFC title game, when he was with the San Francisco 49ers. Police arrested Omenihu on suspicion of domestic violence after his unnamed girlfriend claimed that he pushed her to the ground during an argument and complained of arm pain. She refused medical treatment, and police said they didn't see any visible injuries.

Omenihu, who was a fifth-round pick by the Houston Texans in 2019, played 38 snaps in the NFC title game for the 49ers against the Philadelphia Eagles. He played in all 17 regular-season games in 2022 and tallied 4.5 sacks, 16 quarterback hits and one forced fumble. Omenihu, who'll turn 26 this month, signed with the Chiefs in the offseason. He reportedly had a scheduled court date for May 4 in Santa Clara, California.

Eskridge, 26, released a statement via his agency that explained he was "involved in an unfortunate incident with his child's mother, which resulted in his arrest and the filing of misdemeanor charges" in February. Eskridge's agency said in the statement that he was not convicted of a crime and that charges against him would be dismissed a year after the arrest if he completed domestic violence moral recognition therapy, which it said he did.

Eskridge was a second-round pick by the Seahawks in 2021. He played in 20 games the past two seasons and caught 17 passes for 122 yards and one touchdown.

Both are eligible to practice and play in preseason games but won't play in the regular season until their suspensions are over. Omenihu can play by Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers, while Eskridge won't see the field until Week 8 against the Cleveland Browns because of the Seahawks' Week 5 bye.
