All the talk during the 2025 season on offense for the Chicago Bears has been the play of Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze.
Williams has aspirations of being the first Bears quarterback to throw for over 4,000 yards in a season and is almost at the pace for doing it. Odunze might be on his way to shattering every Bears receiving record for the season with his stellar start.
Through four games, Williams has thrown for 927 yards and eight touchdowns to two interceptions. Odunze has done even better with 20 receptions for 296 yards and five touchdowns.
The pair have been great and something Bears fans were hoping to see since they were drafted together last year in the first round. Chicago's future is looking bright, but one other Williams passing target is being forgotten that could play a critical role down the stretch.
Watch out for Olamide Zaccheaus to break out the rest of the year
It has not been the strongest season for Zaccheaus so far, but he's playing his role well as the number three guy. He has caught 14 passes for 119 yards, averaging just 8.5 yards per reception.
Most people already knew the kind of role that Zaccheaus was going to play with the Bears, as he was going to line up in the slot and be looked at for third-down receptions. Six of his 14 catches have indeed gone for first downs.
The question for Zaccheaus is whether rookie second-round pick Luther Burden III and DJ Moore will be more involved in the offense. Moore has moved around from receiver to lining up in the backfield, but he himself has had a slow start to the season. Burden only had the one 100-yard game against the Dallas Cowboys. Otherwise, he's been ineffective.
Williams needs someone else besides Odunze to step up to the plate. Zaccheaus and Williams had a good rapport in training camp and could go back to the well to make things happen.

Give Zaccheaus time and he might be able to do more in this offense than some believe.
