The wide receiver has an interesting way in preparing for his rookie NFL season.
Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze has an interesting method of learning his playbook ahead of the 2024 season.
The No. 9 pick in this year's draft explained how he's always used his mom, or his dad, to help him learn the playbook ahead of a football season. They typically would yell the play at him while he's setting up to run the route. His rookie NFL season will be no different as Odzune said he "for sure" plans on including his mom in his offseason preparation.. "She's gonna have to be out there in that 115 degrees. She already knows that.
Rome Odunze's preference for learning an offense during his break is to get the play book/installs and run the route tree on the field by having his mom or dad say the play call to him before he lines up and runs the route.June 12, 2024 His learning method has obviously worked in the past as he finished his collegiate career at Washington with two consecutive seasons totaling over 1,000 receiving yards. So, there doesn't seem to be a need to fix something that isn't broken.Madison Williams is a Staff Writer on the Breaking & Trending News Team at Sports Illustrated, where she has covered the entire sports landscape since 2022.
