KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs plan to have pass rusher Charles Omenihu, who was suspended the first six games of the regular season, available on their surprisingly stingy defense when they play the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.Chiefs coach Andy Reid said Monday that Omenihu would get back into the mix at defensive end this week. The expectation is that he could play some snaps against their AFC West rival, though how many and in what situations remains to be seen.“I’m kind of looking forward to seeing him get in there,” said Reid, whose team was back to work Monday after an extra break following last Thursday night’s win over the Denver Broncos. “I don’t know if he’s going to be able to step in and play the whole game, one of those things. I think we kind of ease him back in there and let him get going. See how he does.”The Chiefs signed Omenihu to a two-year, $16 million contract last offseason, even though they knew a suspension was like...
