Omenihu could face possible charges as the case is reviewed by the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office. Under the NFL’s personal conduct policy, a domestic violence situation could result in a six-game suspension for a first offense.
“We are aware of the matter involving Charles Omenihu and are in the process of gathering further information,” the 49ers said in a statement.
The team will play in the NFC championship game on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Omenihu played 15 snaps in the 49ers’ divisional round victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Eight days earlier, he forced a key fumble in a win against the Seattle Seahawks. Omenihu had 4.5 sacks during the regular season.
