Wide receiver is one of the Bears’ strongest positions, but they went into their game Sunday at the Texans with uncertainty about two of their best.

Rookie Rome Odunze will play through a knee injury, but veteran Keenan Allen is inactive.

Odunze’s quick turnaround has been a relief for the Bears after he sprained his right knee in the opener against the Titans. An MRI exam revealed a Grade 1 sprain, and he was able to do limited work in practice Friday.

Allen’s issue dates back to last season, when he missed the Chargers’ last four games.
