While most of the attention is on Bears quarterback Caleb Williams this offseason, fellow rookie Rome Odunze has high expectations as well. In any other year, he’d be under tremendous scrutiny going into the season. There’s less pressure on him, though, with Williams’ stature as the top draft pick and potential franchise quarterback, as well as the Bears having veteran receivers in DJ Moore and Keenan Allen.
Nonetheless, Odunze is off to a good start in his first month or so as a Bear.
“He’s pretty good for where he is in the process — almost exceptional,” coach Matt Eberflus said.
