Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze stumbled at the start his route in a seven-on-seven drill at Friday’s rookie minicamp practice, quickly forcing quarterback Caleb Williams to improvise. Williams darted to his left, bought himself some time, and found an open receiver near the left sideline for a solid gain of 15-20 yards.

The receiver? Rome Odunze.

The Bears are a long way from knowing whether Williams-to-Odunze will be a thing. But it was at least an early indication that Odunze, like Williams, knows how to turn a botched play into a productive one.
