Rome Odunze, WR (CHI)

In line to play Week 1

Odunze (calf), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Carolina, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Odunze made an early exit from practice Sept. 3 due to a right leg injury that was confirmed as a calf issue upon the Bears posting their first Week 1 practice report Wednesday. He proceeded to log three consecutive limited sessions, and Rapoport's report implies Odunze won't be among the team's inactives for the regular-season opener. Chicago will post such a list approximately 90 minutes before a 1 p.m. ET kickoff, and if he's active, Odunze will join Luther Burden as the top wide receivers available to quarterback Caleb Williams.
