Yahoo Sports NFL on Rome Odunze
From the article
Odunze is WR3 in catches of 15+ yards (19). He's also the only WR with 11+ explosive catches to not have a TD on them. That'll change soon. Odunze is the WR46 on WR51 usage since Williams has returned, and the signs are there for a bigger end of the season as a boom-bust WR3.
STACKED’s take
Odunze's TD regression and explosive catch rate suggest imminent breakout upside.
Odunze projects for 49.5 receiving yards and is positioned for a breakout. He's WR3 in catches of 15+ yards (19) and is the only WR with 11+ explosive catches without a touchdown—a regression that will likely correct soon. Since Caleb Williams has returned, Odunze is WR46 on WR51 usage, but the source identifies signs of a bigger end-of-season finish as a boom-bust WR3. The matchup against Tampa is challenging; the Buccaneers rank 27th in points allowed to WRs and have been great at limiting downfield shots with size at CB1 (Zyon McCollum). However, the Bears still project for 26.75 points, and Tampa allows the second-fewest rushing yards per game, which could open up the passing game.
