With wide receiver Rome Odunze (foot) out for last week's game, Loveland and other receivers saw a bigger workload in the 28-21 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Despite his high draft capital and stellar showing so far, the Bears continue to limit his role. Veteran Cole Kmet played 75% of the snaps last week, while the rookie played 59% of the snaps. He faces a Cleveland Browns defense that has been average against tight ends this season, but with a limited snap count and lack of passing volume from the Bears offense, Loveland is better left on the bench in Week 15.

Considering he was the No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 draft, Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland got off to a little bit of a slow start to his NFL career.

That said, the former has out-targeted (31-16), out-caught (24-13), and out-gained (319-138) the latter cumulatively since Week 9.

The Packers have allowed the 12th fewest fantasy points to tight ends this season, but this all comes down to whether the Bears can add more passing volume in Week 14. Loveland offers low-end starting upside in Week 14, who should be a top target in the red zone with Odunze out.

Loveland is operating in close to a full-time role, playing at least 60% of the snaps in six straight games and totaling 23 receptions (29 targets) for 324 yards and three touchdowns. He has the third most PPR points in that span (73.4), only behind George Kittle and Trey McBride. The 10th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft is a dynamic receiving option and a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses at the tight end position.

Despite his high draft capital and elite talent, Loveland is playing fewer snaps this season than Kmet (71% to 59%), and without a sure-fire role in the Bears' offense, Loveland will continue to disappoint this season.
