Chicago Bears' Injuries: Odunze to Suit Up Despite Foot Concerns

The Chicago Bears are set to take on the Los Angeles Rams in Sunday's playoff game, with most players listed as healthy ahead of kickoff. A final injury report released by the team on Friday afternoon revealed only one player, cornerback Nick McCloud, who will miss the contest due to a groin injury.

However, several other key players were listed as questionable, including Rome Odunze, who has been nursing a stress fracture in his foot. Despite this, Odunze expressed confidence that he would play on Sunday, stating earlier in the week that he was "riding it 'til the wheels fall off." Following a full practice on Friday, Odunze's decision appears to be on track to come to fruition.

Other notable absentees from the injury report include defensive end Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and linebacker Amen Ogbongbemiga, both of whom suffered concussions. Additionally, receiver DJ Moore will not play due to a knee injury, while tackle Braxton Jones will also sit out with a similar issue. Cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson was listed as having recovered from his concussion earlier in the week and is set to take on the Rams.

The Bears' offense has been bolstered by Odunze's return, who returned from injury last week after missing several games due to the stress fracture in his foot. His decision to practice in full on Friday suggests that he will be able to contribute to the team's playoff push against the Rams.
 
🤔 The thing is, you've got Odunze playing despite a stress fracture in his foot... I mean, I get it, he's confident and all, but is that really a good idea? It's one thing if he's been practicing hard and everything looks okay, but a full practice on Friday does raise some eyebrows. 🤷‍♂️ What if the stress fracture flares up mid-game or something? You'd rather not risk further injury, especially with playoffs on the line.

Also, the fact that other key players like Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Amen Ogbongbemiga are out due to concussions makes you wonder about the team's overall health. DJ Moore being out with a knee injury is one thing, but it seems like they're relying on their depth players to step up.

Still, Odunze has been quiet about his training and seems like he's doing everything right... so fingers crossed for him! 🤞
 
I'm not sure how this is gonna go down... like with Walter Payton and Brian Urlacher back in the day, we always had guys playing through injuries. Odunze seems confident, but I mean, what if his foot decides to give up on him mid-game? 🤕 Still, it's great that he's getting back out there - this Bears team has some serious grit. And it's crazy how much of a difference one guy can make... like when the '85 Bears made it to the Super Bowl, we were all counting on Jim McMahon to lead us to victory 😂
 
can't believe odunze is gonna play with a foot injury 🤯 like what if it gets worse mid game? but i guess he seems confident so fingers crossed for him 🤞, and btw why do teams always downplay injuries till game day tho? it's like they're trying to put on a show or something 🎭
 
Umm... I don't know if this is a good idea or not 🤔. Like, Odunze is supposed to be super tough and stuff, but his foot injury is still kinda major 💸. How can he trust that it won't freak out on him in the middle of the game? And what about those concussions from Tryon-Shoyinka and Ogbongbemiga? Shouldn't they be worried about those too? 🤕

But at the same time... Odunze has been practicing full days, so maybe he's more capable than I think 😎. Like, it's a playoff game, you gotta give him the chance to shine, right? 💫 But can we really trust his foot not to give out on him? Ugh, I'm torn 🤯
 
Ugh, I'm getting so sick of these injury reports 🤦‍♂️. Can't they just give us a straightforward answer for once? "Rome Odunze is questionable" doesn't exactly fill me with confidence 😬. And what's up with all the guys who are listed as having recovered from concussions, only to not be playing 🤔. It's like they're trying to confuse us on purpose.

And don't even get me started on how many players are missing from this game... DJ Moore and Braxton Jones out for sure 💔, and now Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Amen Ogbongbemiga not expected to play either 🤕. It's like the Bears' team is being put together by a committee of lawyers instead of actual football players 📝.

I mean, I guess it's good that Odunze is feeling confident about playing despite his foot concerns 🤞, but can we at least get some reliable info around here? It's just frustrating 💔.
 
Wow 😅 I'm actually kinda stoked about Rome Odunze coming back this weekend despite having a foot injury 🤕 Guess he's gonna "ride it 'til the wheels fall off" like he said earlier 🚗💨 This is definitely a great sign for the Bears, especially with DJ Moore out with a knee injury 💔. Hopefully, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Amen Ogbongbemiga can get back soon too 👊. Bring on the Rams game! 😄
 
I'm actually surprised they're letting Odunze play with a foot concern, it just seems like a risk 🤔🏈. I get that confidence is key and all, but at this point in the playoffs you want every player to be 100% so you can't afford to have anyone going down. Still, fingers crossed for the Bears, they've come so far this season 🤞💪
 
Ugh, I'm so not buying it 🤔. They're saying Odunze is good to go despite having a stress fracture in his foot? That's just crazy talk 😂. And what's with all these guys going down with concussions? It sounds like they're playing dirty or something 💥. The Bears' offense needs all the help it can get, but this team is just begging for disaster 🤦‍♂️. I'm not expecting them to pull off a miracle comeback against the Rams... yeah right 😒.
 
omg i was hoping they'd sit odunze out but its clear he's not gonna let that stress fracture get the best of him 🤣 what's with all these injuries tho? it feels like everyone's playing with one leg tied behind their back 😅 hopefully the bears can still pull this off against the rams, gotta be tough to watch though
 
So weird that Rome Odunze is gonna play with a foot concern 🤔... like, I get it, he wants to ride out this season and all, but doesn't that kinda sound like playing with a broken leg? 😬 Either way, I'm keeping an eye on how his game goes. Team needs him if they wanna take down the Rams. Hopefully, Joe Tryon-Shoyinka recovers from that concussion soon... can't have too many injuries piling up right now 🤕
 
Man, I don't know how the Bears are gonna do it with all these injuries 🤕... reminds me of the time Walter Payton was coming back from a knee injury and had to play through some pretty rough stuff. And now Rome Odunze is talking about riding through the pain? That's dedication, you know? 💪 But at the same time, I'm kinda worried for his foot - all that stress can't be good in the long run... my grandma always said to take care of your feet and they'll take care of you 😊. Anyway, gotta root for Odunze and the Bears, hope they can pull off this win against the Rams! 🏈💥
 
🤔 The Chicago Bears are defying odds here... 😂 Odunze, despite having a busted foot 🤕, is gonna try and play Sunday vs the Rams! 💪 That's like trying to draw a perfect circle with a wonky pencil 🖌️ Still hopeful he'll make it happen tho 😊.
 
Idk how they expect Odunze to play with a stress fracture, that's not something you can just "ride it 'til the wheels fall off" 😂. He's got to prioritize his health over the game, that's just common sense. And what about Tryon-Shoyinka and Ogbongbemiga? Both concussions are major deals, they need time to recover. I'm worried this team is being reckless with player safety...
