Odunze Still Not Practicing, Likely Out for Week 18 Finale Due to Foot Stress Fracture

Bears WR Rome Odunze (foot) was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, marking his fifth consecutive absence due to a stress fracture. He is poised to miss the Week 18 finale against the Lions, with a final ruling expected Friday. Head coach Ben Johnson anticipates Odunze could return to help the team later this season, potentially during the playoffs, but his regular season appears to be over.
