Bears WR Rome Odunze to get MRI on knee

Sep 09, 2024

Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze played his first regular season game on Sunday and he’s having his first regular season MRI on Monday.

Head coach Matt Eberflus told reporters at his Monday press conference that the first-round pick is going to have imaging done on his knee.

Fantasy Impact:

Odunze caught one pass for 11 yards in Sunday’s win over the Titans but he played 43 of the team’s 56 offensive snaps. The story went on to say Eberflus said it’s not clear when the injury happened as Odunze played through the end of the game, but whatever issue he reported was serious enough to send him for tests. The story added the Bears are in Houston for Sunday Night Football in Week 2, but we may not know until later this week about Oduzne and his status.

Browns TE David Njoku "unlikely" to play Week 3

Kevin Stefanski is hopeful that Denzel Ward (shoulder) can play more than 11 snaps vs. Giants, TE David Njoku 'unlikely' to play.

Fantasy Impact:

Akins has been seeing a bigger workload this year but not enough for our purposes. Over 49 routes run he has accrued only 37 yards. He can safely be kept on waiver wires.

Packers QB Jordan Love returns to practice

Jordan Love practicing for first time since spraining his MCL in opener against Eagles. An awfully good sign for QB1’s availability this week in Tennessee.

Related Players: Malik Willis

Fantasy Impact:

Green Bay rolled out the perfect gameplan for Willis in Love's absence, but we shouldn't assume the latter only gets 14 pass attempts if he's good to go for Week 3. If he's ready to suit up, mark him down as a low-end QB1 against the Titans.
