Facing target competition Kmet could be in line for a reduction in receiving opportunities after Chicago selected Colston Loveland with the No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 draft.
Impact In 2024, Kmet recorded 47 receptions for 474 yards and four touchdowns on 55 targets, marking his least productive season since his rookie year in 2020. After playing 87 percent of the offensive snaps last season, Kmet now faces significant competition following the first-round selection of Loveland, whose arrival could sharply reduce his role. Although Loveland is expected to be an adequate blocker, the Bears likely drafted the former Michigan standout for his ability to create mismatches in the passing game. Unless the situation shifts during training camp, Kmet may go undrafted in the majority of fantasy leagues.

Disappointing season concludes Kmet caught two passes for three yards in the Bears' 24-22 win over the Packers on Sunday.
Impact Kmet posted a career year in 2023, when he recorded 719 yards and six touchdowns. However, the tight end had been the No. 2 option in the team's passing attack. This year was much different. The Bears had three quality wide receivers, but they also had an inconsistent passing attack. As a result, the tight end was targeted 55 times, leading to 474 yards and four touchdowns. In terms of yardage, this was easily the worst season since Kmet's rookie campaign in 2020. The former Notre Dame player will need the Chicago passing attack to take a major step forward if he is going to return to being a solid fantasy option. Kmet is under contract with the Bears through 2027.

Blanked in Thursday's loss Kmet wasn't targeted in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seahawks.
Impact Kmet was far from the only Chicago player to post an underwhelming stat line as the Bears produced just 179 yards of offense en route to a 10th consecutive defeat. The lone target among Chicago's tight ends Thursday went to Gerald Everett. Kmet will look to bounce back in Week 18 against a Packers defense that permitted him to catch three passes for 42 yards back in Week 11.

Scores touchdown in losing effort Kmet caught two passes for nine yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 34-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Impact Kmet found the end zone for the first time since Chicago's Week 7 bye. In the last three games, the tight end has a total of three receptions on three targets. Kmet also has one game with more than four targets over the last eight games. Although the veteran is a talented player, his scoring floor remains low due to lack of volume.

One grab in loss Kmet caught a 14-yard pass in the Bears' 30-12 loss to the Vikings on Monday.
Impact Kmet has slowed down drastically since the Bears' Week 7 bye. The veteran has five games with 14 yards or fewer in five of eight games. In addition, Kmet has caught four passes for 40 yards over the last three games. The tight end will remain a risky lineup option in the fantasy playoffs.
