Odunze’s Calf Injury Threatens Bears’ Season Opener | Chicago Bears News

Rome Odunze’s calf injury casts doubt on his availability for the Bears’ season opener against Carolina, with his status remaining uncertain as the team eyes a critical Week 1 showdown. A key starter and vital target for Caleb Williams, Odunze’s absence could force a major offensive reshuffle, especially with DJ Moore gone and Burden III and Loveland stepping up. While his foot injury last year didn’t stop him from playing through pain and even returning for the playoffs, this new calf issue is unrelated — offering some hope. With limited time to recover, Odunze’s return remains a must-watch storyline as the Bears gear up for their opening game.
