Caleb Williams Signals Rome Odunze’s Return for Bears’ Wild-Card Game vs. Packers

His potential availability would bolster a passing game that leaned on D.J. Moore plus rookie targets during a five-game absence.

Overview

  • Williams told reporters he is “excited to have him back,” a comment widely interpreted as pointing to Odunze playing this weekend.
  • The team has not issued an official confirmation, and details on medical clearance or expected usage have not been disclosed.
  • Odunze has missed the last five regular-season games with a foot stress fracture and has not played since Week 13.
  • Before the injury, he led Chicago with 44 receptions for 661 yards and six touchdowns on 90 targets.
  • Chicago went 2–3 without him but still clinched the NFC North and the NFC’s No. 2 seed, setting up a home Wild Card matchup with Green Bay.
