Chiefs DE Charles Omenihu offers Peacock subscriptions for wild card game vs. Dolphins

NFL fans usually have something to complain about this time of year, and the grip that has most up in arms is the wild-card game on Saturday, being exclusively broadcast on Peacock, the streaming service that is owned by NBCUniversal.
Although this was announced that the NFL would be getting in bed with streaming services, especially during playoff time, fans of the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins didn't want to hear any of it once it was their teams slotted for the 8 p.m. ET Saturday kickoff. Peacock probably would like to recoup some of the reported $110 million they are paying to air the game.
Chiefs defensive end Charles Omenihu was also upset, calling the decision "insane" and said he would give out Peacock membership giveaway for Chiefs fans.
"Alright Chiefs Kingdom, I saw the comments and want y’all to be able to watch us play," Omenihu wrote on social media. "So, I’m giving away 90 3-month Peacock memberships! To enter to win, reply to this tweet with why you should get picked. Picking winners Friday!”
The premium plan for Peacock is $11.99 per month (without ads), and Omenihu can more than afford 90 memberships after signing a two-year, $16 million contract with Kansas City last offseason.

Omenihu likely means to give those Peacock subscriptions out to fans who do not live in the Kansas City area, as the game will be shown in local markets, including the greater Miami region.
