Odunze was the Bears’ leading receiver before suffering a foot injury in a 24-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday with 44 receptions for 661 yards and six touchdowns. He suffered a setback before the Bears beat the Cleveland Browns 31-3, and has not played since the last weekend in November.
In the meantime, rookie tight end Colston Loveland has become Williams’ top target, leading the Bears with 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns.

Per Sean Hammond of the Chicago Tribune, Williams sent Odunze a message after the Bears’ win over Cleveland, telling the receiver that Chicago would find a way to make the playoffs, but Odunze would be needed at 100 percent in the postseason.
“When he went down (in warm ups before the Browns game), texted (Odunze) after the game and said, ‘I got you, and we’ll get to the playoffs and we’ll handle business when you come back, but I need you back healthy and ready to go,’” Williams said.

Odunze was a key miss in both contests against the Packers in December. Williams threw for just 186 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the first meeting. Williams led a comeback that ended in a 22-16 overtime win in the second meeting.
The Bears offense started slowly in both games, scoring three points in the first half on Dec. 7 before being held scoreless on Dec. 20. Chicago could be more threatening early on Saturday with Odunze.
