    Bears' Rome Odunze: Limited again Thursday

    Rome Odunze (calf) was listed as a limited participant for Thursday's practice.Odunze was limited for a second day in a row as his status remains unclear going into Week 1. Friday's injury report should provide some clarity, but even then, the Chicago Bears may not make a final call on Odunze until Sunday. An absence from Odunze this weekend would open playing time for Kalif Raymond or Zavion Thomas.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Listed as limited participant

    Rome Odunze (calf) was limited in Wednesday's practice.After sitting out Monday and being labeled day-to-day by coach Ben Johnson on Tuesday, Odunze was limited in the first official practice of the week. His status for Sunday's season opener against Carolina still appears unsettled. If Odunze is unable to go, Luther Burden and Colston Loveland should dominate most of the targets from Caleb Williams, while Kalif Raymond and Zavion Thomas would likely see more action on offense.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Won't practice Tuesday

    Head coach Ben Johnson said that Rome Odunze (leg) won't practice Tuesday, but the wide receiver is considered "more day-to-day," and the Chicago Bears remain optimistic he'll play in Sunday's season opener versus the Panthers, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.Johnson didn't provide many specifics regarding the right leg injury that Odunze sustained in a practice last Thursday, though the coach noted that the issue isn't an aggravation of the foot injury that kept the wideout sidelined for the final five games of the 2025 regular season, per Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com. Odunze will still have three more chances to fit in some practice activity before the Bears decide on his status for Sunday's contest, but at this stage, the third-year receiver seems likely to play.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Not practicing Monday

    Rome Odunze (leg) is not practicing Monday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.After Odunze exited Thursday's practice with an apparent right leg injury, the wide receiver is opening the Week 1 practice week with an absence. The Chicago Bears will release an official practice report Wednesday, and it will be a situation to monitor heading into the weekend for Sunday's season opener against the Panthers. If Odunze can't go against Carolina, Luther Burden (groin) and Colston Loveland would likely see expanded target shares, while Kalif Raymond and rookie Zavion Thomas would be in line for elevated snaps.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Seemingly avoids serious issue

    Rome Odunze "should be all good" after leaving Thursday's practice with an apparent right leg injury, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.Odunze exited in the first hour of Thursday's session, but despite attempting to stay on the field, he was escorted off of it with team trainers. Wiederer's report seems to back up that Odunze's new health concern isn't a serious one, but he'll still enter Week 1 prep with a question mark regarding his status. With fellow WR Luther Burden also tending to a groin injury, the Chicago Bears currently have only Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas and Jahdae Walker as healthy options at the position on the active roster.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Sustains apparent leg injury

    Rome Odunze sustained an apparent right leg injury during Thursday's practice session, Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune reports.Per the report, Odunze did not seem overly concerned about the injury and attempted to stay on the field, but the training staff decided to bring his day to an early end. His status will be updated again when more details are released, but as things stand both Odunze and Luther Burden (groin) are less than 100 percent. Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas and Jahdae Walker are next in line on the depth chart.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Last year's foot injury behind him

    Coach Ben Johnson said Tuesday that Rome Odunze has had no issues this summer with the foot injury that plagued him last season, Larry Mayer of the Chicago Bears' official site reports.Odunze was able to play through listed ankle and heel injuries through Week 13 last season, but a stress fracture in his foot sidelined him Weeks 14-18 before he returned for Chicago's two postseason contests. In 14 appearances including playoffs, he posted a 48-749-6 line on 102 targets, recording 13 receptions of 20-plus yards along the way. As the ninth overall pick in the 2024 Draft, Odunze has a 51.3 percent catch rate (98 for 191) in his two-year career, but he's made up for it with 14.2 YPC. If the aforementioned foot injury is a thing of the past, Odunze will remain a key target for QB Caleb Williams along with TE Colston Loveland and WR Luther Burden (groin) in 2026.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Big gain on one catch Saturday

    Rome Odunze brought in one of two targets for 18 yards in the Chicago Bears' 27-9 preseason loss to the Bengals on Saturday.Odunze wasted no time making an impact, hauling in an 18-yard pass on the Bears' second play from scrimmage. The third-year wideout was targeted once more without success. Odunze is firmly on track for the highest volume of his still nascent career now that DJ Moore is in Buffalo. Projected No. 2 receiver Luther Burden also remains sidelined with a groin injury and is uncertain for Week 1, so Odunze is almost certainly not seeing the field again until a Week 1 road matchup against the Panthers on Sunday, Sept. 13.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Doesn't play vs. Cleveland

    Rome Odunze did not participate in Saturday's 30-14 preseason win over the Browns.Odunze was joined by fellow wideouts Luther Burden (groin), Kalif Raymond and rookie third-rounder Zavion Thomas (knee) on the sidelines, along with tight ends Cole Kmet and Colston Loveland. Odunze saw his production dip from his rookie season to his sophomore campaign, though that was partly due to him missing the final five games of the 2025 regular season due to a heel injury. This year, Odunze has the opportunity to live up to his potential as a former top-10 pick, given that DJ Moore now is in Buffalo.

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Says foot feels great

    Rome Odunze said Thursday that his foot "feels great" at the beginning of training camp, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.Odunze also used the word 'amazing' to describe how he feels, perhaps looking to set the record straight after his June comments about a "new normal" led to some panic from Chicago Bears fans and fantasy managers. He suffered a stress fracture in his foot last season, derailing what had the look of a breakout year through September and the first half of October. Odunze returned for the playoffs and avoided surgery in the offseason, with no hint of any trouble (besides the one quote) during OTAs and minicamp. He, Luther Burden and TE Colston Loveland are locked in as Caleb Williams' top three targets, in some unknown order.
