From the article

Despite running the most routes among Bears wide receivers through two games, Rome Odunze has just five catches on seven targets. And while his average of 19 yards per reception is impressively high, Odunze's not seeing the target rate we expect from WR1s … or WR2s … or WR3s. To make matters worse, Caleb Williams just suffered a hamstring injury.

Odunze's low target rate despite route volume is concerning, especially with Williams injured.

Despite running the most routes among Bears wide receivers through two games, Odunze has just five catches on seven targets with an average of 19 yards per reception. His target rate is not what we expect from WR1s, WR2s, or WR3s. To make matters worse, Caleb Williams just suffered a hamstring injury, and the Eagles have been extremely tough against outside wide receivers.
