Rome Odunze A High-Upside WR3 Option Despite Tough Matchup In Week 12
5 hours agoChicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze is looking to build on his solid performance in Week 11 as he faces a tough Minnesota Vikings defense in Week 12. Odunze had a productive outing last week, recording 65 receiving yards against the Green Bay Packers. As the Bears' primary big-play threat, he'll be eager to continue his progression and establish himself as a reliable option in this offense. Odunze's ability to make plays downfield could be critical in Week 12, as the Vikings' defense, while challenging, blitzes at one of the highest rates in the NFL. If the Bears' offensive line can give quarterback Caleb Williams enough time, Odunze could see plenty of one-on-one opportunities. However, the Minnesota defense has proven to be one of the toughest matchups in the league, ranking 4th in points per game allowed and 5th in EPA per pass. Despite the challenging matchup, Odunze continues to come into his own and could be a sneaky WR3 with upside in Week 12, especially if he gets some downfield looks. For fantasy managers needing a high-ceiling play, he's a worthy consideration as a flex or WR3 option with big-play potential.
