Cole Kmet Quiet in Week 6 with Bears Tight End Room Back to Full Strength

Tuesday, October 14, 9:11 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had a very quiet game in Week 6 against the Washington Commanders, recording one catch for zero yards on two targets. With fellow Bears tight end Colston Loveland sidelined by a hip injury, Kmet saw a brief target spike (nine) in Week 4. However, with Loveland back in the lineup against Washington after Chicago's Week 5 bye, it appears Kmet will have a hard time earning the target volume needed for consistent fantasy production. Through five games this season, Kmet has eight catches for 116 yards and one touchdown on 18 targets. He should remain off of fantasy radars unless Loveland were to go down with another injury.

Darnell Washington Becoming A Fantasy Option?

Tuesday, October 14, 9:07 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington came down with three of his five targets for 62 yards in a Week 6 victory against the Cleveland Browns. While it marked the second straight contest in which Washington led Pittsburgh's tight end room in snaps, it was his first time besting both Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth in targets this season. Given how well the Steelers have operated offensively lately, Washington should remain involved in a Week 7 divisional clash against the Cincinnati Bengals. He hasn't done quite enough yet to warrant consideration in fantasy lineups, but Washington is trending positively and will be a name to watch on Thursday night.
