Cole Kmet In Line for Increased Role Against Las Vegas?

Saturday, September 27, 12:24 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet could see an expanded role in Week 4. He scored a touchdown on his lone target in Week 3, bringing his season totals to four receptions for 70 yards and one touchdown through three games. With rookie Colston Loveland (hip) listed as questionable, Kmet may see more targets and opportunities against the Las Vegas Raiders, who have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends this season. If Loveland plays, Kmet remains unstartable in fantasy. However, if Loveland sits, Kmet projects as a high-end TE2 for Week 4.

Colston Loveland Won't Play in Week 4 Against Raiders

Sunday, September 28, 3:21 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland (hip) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie had been listed as questionable. He missed two practices before being able to log a limited session Friday, but it evidently wasn't quite enough for him to play this week. Loveland has operated in a depth role this season, catching just three of his six targets through three games. On the other hand, Cole Kmet has played at least 90 percent of the snaps in all three contests so far, so he remains an interesting fantasy option whose value will only increase with Loveland sidelined. Kmet should be viewed as a mid-range TE2 for the duration of Loveland's absence.
