From the episode

Marvin Harrison Jr., Roma Dunze, Brian Thomas Jr., they're all playing the X for their offense. Is this more of a reflection of them and their skill? Or the way current offenses are focused on slot slash ISOed middle of the field routes?

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Odunze struggles as an X receiver in an era favoring slot and middle-field routes.

Rome Odunze is among young wide receivers struggling this season, all playing the X receiver position. JJ Zachariason addresses whether this is a skill issue or a reflection of modern offensive design favoring slot and middle-of-field routes over traditional X receiver deep routes, which can bring volatility to fantasy production.
