For the third time in as many seasons, Charles Omenihu is going to have a new general manager.
The former 2019 Houston Texans fifth-round pick spent time with Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle and expressed what he is looking forward to in new general manager Nick Caserio.
“It shows he knows how to win,” Omenihu said of Caserio’s six Super Bowl wins with the New England Patriots, where he was the director of player personnel. “He’s been around it. So, and he’s no stranger to it. So, I mean, bringing that structure and order from a winning program or organization is what we need. I think he’s going to be good. I’m excited to meet him and talk to him, pick his brain — just someone who’s won six Super Bowls. He’s got a lot of knowledge.”

Omenihu was at the Pleasant Hill Missionary Baptist Church in the Fifth Ward Monday as he was helping distribute 1,000 meals to residents in the community.
The 6-5, 280-pound defensive end provided 17 combined tackles, five tackles for loss, 4.0 sacks, 16 quarterback hits, and two pass breakups for Houston through 15 games, five of which he started.
One of the areas Caserio will be looking to upgrade is edge defense, and one of the building blocks could be Omenihu, who will be entering his third year of his four-year contract with the Texans.
