For Texans rookie defensive end Charles Omenihu, it was important to showcase breast cancer awareness.
Omenihu decided to have his cleats designed in pink colors as part of the NFL's annual My Cause, My Cleats campaign.
"I don't speak too much on it, but it has a special place in my heart," Omenihu said. "I'm glad I was able to express it for this game with my cleats. That's a very close personal thing to me. I want to show my support. It's not just the cleats. It's something I plan on doing more to raise awareness.
