BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4
ANALYSIS: Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze hasn't seen many opportunities in his first two career games. In Week 1, Odunze caught just one pass for 11 yards. Then, last week, the rookie reeled in two passes for 33 yards. As a result, it has been hard to rely on him in fantasy to start the year.

Even with Keenan Allen (heel) out for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts, Odunze is more of a WR4 in fantasy this weekend. Caleb Williams has yet to throw for more than 175 yards in a game this season, and the rookie wideout has finished outside the top 60 at the wide receiver position in fantasy in both games.
So, Odunze should only be started in 14-plus team leagues in Week 3. Until we see a solid fantasy day from the rookie, it's probably best to sit him on your bench.
