Chicago Bears’ star doesn’t hold back on major goals for 2026 season
The Chicago Bears’ passing game found an identity and improved by leaps and bounds during the 2025 campaign, thanks in large part to quarterback Caleb Williams’ dramatic improvement in his second season.
However, despite Williams falling just short of becoming the first quarterback in franchise history to pass for 4,000 yards, the Bears did not have a receiver finish in the top-40 in receiving yards across the league.
As former first-round pick Rome Odunze prepares for his third NFL season, he hopes to change that in a big way in 2026.
Chicago Bears’ Rome Odunze preparing to make big leap

Odunze could see his role dramatically increase in 2026, especially if the Bears decide to move off veteran DJ Moore, which would push the former University of Washington standout to the top of the depth chart.
Regardless, Odunze has his sights set on some lofty goals for next season.
“I truly believe I can be one of the best in the league, so until I go out there and do that, I’m not satisfied,” Odunze told the Sun-Times. “That’s what I’m working toward.
“You go through certain circumstances during the season, like injuries, but in this league, you either do or you don’t. And I’m looking forward to doing a lot more.”

That would be a pretty big leap, for Odunze, who caught 44 passes for 661 yards and a career-high six touchdowns in 2025.
However, as Williams continues his ascent, and even in a crowded offense that includes the likes of tight end Colston Loveland and Luther Burden, Odunze has the tools in his skill set and the rapport with his quarterback to not just stand out but make a run at climbing the ladder among the league’s top receivers next fall.
