“The Bears and Caleb are gonna have to get comfortable giving Rome more ‘covered’ opportunities,” Orlovsky wrote on X previous this future.
“Rome isn’t getting open at this level right now—Caleb will have to get comfortable throwing him some 50/50 balls.”
Odunze’s father, James, begged to fluctuate.
“A quick (2 GAMES out of 17) reference-guide for those with the initials D.O. and work for the Entertainment & Sports Programming Network W/respect,” the daddy wrote, sharing the video of his son noticeable after all zone.

“I shouldn’t have shown as much,” Moore nearest instructed journalists. “But it’s a part of the game. Like I said, we were one play away from the game changing. And we just couldn’t connect, nobody on offense could connect with the one play or get the one play started to get us on track and go up. It’s football. Everybody is going to have their ups and downs and frustrations.”
