Bears Considering Shutting Down Rome Odunze for Playoffs Due to Foot Injury
Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson indicated that shutting down WR Rome Odunze (foot) for the playoffs is "on the table" to protect him and allow his injured foot to heal. Odunze aggravated a stress fracture in his foot during Week 15 pregame warmups, leading to his late scratch against the Browns. He was active but did not play. Johnson stated, "All options are on the table," and it's likely Odunze will miss Saturday night's game against the Packers. His potential absence could lead to expanded roles for Olamide Zaccheaus and Devin Duvernay.
