From the article

Odunze is clearly the top wide receiver, but he is currently joined by Kalif Raymond, Zavion Thomas, Jahdae Walker and Scotty Miller as the best options at the position. Odunze is heading into his third season. Last year, he played in 12 games and finished with 661 yards and six touchdowns.

Odunze elevated as Bears' WR1 with Burden out; 661 yards, 6 TDs last season.

Rome Odunze is clearly the top wide receiver for the Bears and will be a primary target for Caleb Williams, especially with Luther Burden III sidelined. Odunze is heading into his third season after playing 12 games last year with 661 yards and six touchdowns. With the Bears' thin WR depth and the loss of DJ Moore in the offseason, Odunze will shoulder increased offensive responsibility.
