The Chicago Bears officially have more firepower on the roster.

Chicago and wide receiver Rome Odunze agreed to a four-year, $22.7 million fully guaranteed contract, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Odunze was the No. 9 overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft.

The start of the draft unfolded perfectly for the Bears, which is why Odunze fell to the NFC North team at No. 9. Quarterbacks went with the first three picks—including Chicago's selection of Caleb Williams at No. 1 overall—and the Los Angeles Chargers went with offensive lineman Joe Alt at No.
