Bears' Cole Kmet: Cleared to return
Kmet (back) was a full practice participant Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Kmet will return from a one-game absence and likely continue rotating with rookie Colston Loveland, who caught three passes for 38 yards in the loss to Baltimore last week. A favorable matchup with the Bengals should lead to some TE production, but it's hard to say which guy will come out ahead in terms of snaps and routes, never mind targets.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Limited for second straight day
Kmet (back) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
After missing the first game of his career in this past Sunday's loss to the Ravens, Kmet has opened Week 9 prep with a pair of limited sessions. If he can upgrade to full participation Friday, Kmet should be in good position to reclaim his usual duties as the Bears' starting tight end. While Kmet was sidelined this past weekend, rookie first-round pick Colston Loveland played a season-high 81 percent of the snaps on offense and finished with three catches for 38 yards on five targets.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Limited in return to practice
Kmet (back) was a limited practice participant Wednesday.
This marks Kmet's first on-field work since he sustained a back injury Week 7 against the Saints that resulted in the first absence of his six-year career this past Sunday in Baltimore. Getting back on the practice field Wednesday generally is a sign of progress, but he may need to get back to all activity Thursday and/or Friday to avoid a designation entirely ahead of Sunday's contest at Cincinnati.

Bears' Cole Kmet: First career absence in Week 8
Kmet (back) won't play Sunday against the Ravens.
Kmet will miss a regular-season game for the first time in his NFL career after starting his career with a 90-game ironman streak. Rookie first-round pick Colston Loveland is expected to see increased usage in Kmet's absence. Head coach Ben Johnson deemed Kmet "week-to-week" Friday but said the tight end isn't a candidate to go on injured reserve, per Scott Bair of Marquee Sports Network.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Sits out another practice
Kmet (back) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice.
Kmet didn't take any reps for the second day in a row and may be trending toward missing Sunday's game in Baltimore. Before the Bears decide whether Kmet takes a designation into the weekend or gets ruled out for Sunday's contest, the team will wait and see if he's able to log any on-field work Friday. Rookie first-round pick Colston Loveland would be in line for a hefty snap count at tight end if Kmet is unable to play in Baltimore.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Misses practice
Kmet (back) didn't practice Wednesday.
Rookie TE Colston Loveland played 91 percent of Chicago's snaps after Kmet left Sunday's win over New Orleans in the third quarter. Prior to the injury, Kmet and Loveland had been working in a timeshare, with neither seeing many targets on a big day for the Bears' running game. Loveland may be tasked with a three-down role this Sunday in Baltimore if Kmet isn't ready to play.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Leaves Sunday's game
Kmet exited Sunday's game against the Saints after sustaining a back injury.
Prior to that, Kmet caught his only target for 16 yards. While he's sidelined, Colston Loveland and Durham Smythe are available to handle the Bears' tight-end duties versus New Orleans.

Bears' Cole Kmet: No impact in passing game
Kmet caught one of two targets for zero yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.
Even with 2025 first-round pick Colston Loveland struggling to stay healthy and adjust to the NFL, Kmet hasn't been a big factor in the Chicago offense. The veteran tight end has 10 or fewer yards in two of his last three games en route to an 8-116-1 line for the season on 18 targets, leaving him as a depth fantasy option.

Bears' Cole Kmet: Leads team in targets
Kmet caught three of nine targets for 46 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
After Kmet was targeted a total of seven times in the first three games of 2025, his nine targets in Week 4 was likely a result of Chicago trying to use quick passes to keep the Las Vegas pass rush off Caleb Williams. Despite the busy afternoon, Kmet will need to string a couple of games with high volume to be considered a reliable fantasy option, although his outlook has improved somewhat with rookie Colston Loveland struggling and dealing with a hip injury.
