Default Whooshing noise (wind noise) coming from my rear passenger side wheel...what is it??

I have what sounds like road noise/wind coming from the rear passenger side wheel. I can hear it in my cabin between about 30-60 mph...my first thought was the wheel bearing...I looked at the rotor and it is kind of chipping and rusting away around the edges...thoughts anyone?? TIA
