Chiefs’ Charles Omenihu speaks about not being able to play against the 49ers in Super Bowl

I think pregame was the worst — pregame and kickoff. Just seeing everybody warming up. I could feel the atmosphere of being at the Super Bowl. But then you’re on the sideline with nothing around. That was the worst of it all. I was just telling myself ‘hopefully you will be back here and playing.’

It wasn’t good. It wasn’t a good feeling at all. I wanted to play so bad. Especially being my former team last year. I felt like this was my opportunity to show y’all like ‘you didn’t want to pay me.’ Y’all let me go. This is kinda like my opportunity to show y’all that was a horrible decision. And the fact that I wasn’t able to do that against them. I have got over it now, but at that time it very much ate at me.

I saw our schedule came out though and we do have them on the schedule next year. I’m hoping it’s around the time I will be back. I really really want to be available for that game.
