Cole Kmet Fantasy

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had four catches for 49 yards against the Green Bay Packers. Kmet seemed like he could be poised for a breakout heading into 2021, but that has not come to fruition. Regardless, this game marked one of his best of the season. The sophomore tight end has solid hands and is extremely physical, but in his current situation, it's going to be difficult for the Bears' lackluster quarterbacks to support enough pieces to deem Kmet fantasy relevant. Nevertheless, Kmet must be rostered in any tight end premium leagues and can even be rostered as a hopeful lottery ticket in standard leagues, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from the youngster in 2021. In Dynasty leagues, however, Kmet is still a valuable asset as his quarterback and head coaching issues should presumably eventually be resolved.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet will have a favorable matchup against the Packers in Week 6. Offensively, the first five weeks have been a major disappointment for the second-year tight end. Kmet has amassed only 10 receptions for 81 yards but has been a major contributor run-blocking in a run-heavy offense. The Packers have allowed the 13th most fantasy points to opposing tight ends, including 13 or more fantasy points to three different tight ends. The Bears insist that they want to get Kmet more involved but until he sees more than four targets a game and finds the end zone, he is not fantasy viable in Week 6.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet caught two passes for 22 yards in the Bears victory over the Raiders in Week 5. Kmet saw four targets in the game and picked up a huge first down late in the game with a 15-yard catch. The rookie tight end is definitely apart of the Bears offensive game plan but has been stuck in the box run-blocking for large stretches of the game. Kmet is not fantasy viable moving forward as a fourth option in a run-heavy offense.
