The Chicago Bears drafted Rome Odunze with the ninth overall pick in this year's NFL draft. The Bears selected the Washington product to complement Keenan Williams and D.J. Moore. So far, he has looked good and is building chemistry with quarterback Caleb Williams.

In the 21-16 loss to the Indianapolis Colts last week, Odunze had six receptions for 112 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. Unfortunately, due to a hip injury, he was limited in practice this week and was listed on the injury report ahead of the Week 4 game against the Los Angeles Rams.

As per Ian Rapoport, Rome Odunze was a full participant in practice on Friday and is set to play against the Rams on Sunday. Moreover, the Bears are also expected to have Keenan Allen back, who missed the last two games due to a heel injury.

Odunze dealt with a knee injury earlier in the season but did not miss a single game. In three games, he has nine receptions for 156 yards and a touchdown on 20 targets. He is averaging 17.3 yards per reception, and that number could go higher now that Allen is back.

The Bears were expected to have one of the most prolific offenses in the NFL this season, but the team has not looked good due to poor play from the offensive line and Allen's injury.

Caleb Williams did play well last week, as despite throwing two interceptions, he threw for 363 yards and two touchdowns while completing 63.5% of his throws. Williams could build on that and lead the Bears to their second win of the season against the Rams.

As of now, the Bears are a three-point favorite at home against the Rams. Their defense has played well this season, giving up an average of 19 points and 306.3 yards of total offense per game. With Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, and several other key Rams players still out, the Bears should come with a win on Sunday.
