Chicago Bears WR Rome Odunze caught three passes (on six targets) for 44 yards in a Week 3 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

Why It Matters: It was another mostly disappointing performance for Odunze, who flat out dropped what should have been an easy touchdown on a perfect pass from Case Keenum. The former first-round pick was roundly outplayed by Luther Burden III and journeyman Kalif Raymond, and though he's in no danger of falling out of the rotation in Chicago, it's looking more and more like he isn't a great fit for this offense. It seems like all of the schemed plays go to Burden and/or Raymond while Odunze is utilized more on downfield shots and contested ball situations. While he was typically drafted as a high-end WR3,
Odunze has dipped into more WR4/WR5 territory, though you should not consider releasing him at this point.
