Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had a quiet season opener, catching just one of four targets for 31 yards in the 27-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. His lone grab came on the final drive, a highlight-worthy one-handed diving catch over the middle. While rookie Colston Loveland has entered the rotation, Kmet still dominated usage, logging 90% of the snaps compared to Loveland's 56%, and handling 77% of one-tight-end sets versus Loveland's 23%. The volume and role remain encouraging, but the matchup is a major concern in Week 2. The Bears face a Detroit Lions defense that allowed the fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2024. With a difficult opponent and a reduced ceiling due to Loveland's presence, Kmet is better left on fantasy benches this week.

The Los Angeles Rams' second-round rookie, Terrance Ferguson, played a few snaps on Sunday and was not targeted against the Tennessee Titans after not seeing the field in Week 1 against the Houston Texans. Ferguson is listed second on the depth chart behind Tyler Higbee, with Colby Parkinson (shoulder) dealing with an injury. At this time, it's unclear what Ferguson's role will be in the offense, as he has not gotten many opportunities in the offense to this point. In his career with the Oregon Ducks, he had 134 receptions, 16 receiving touchdowns, and 1,537 career receiving yards. In his senior year in 2024, he recorded 43 catches for 591 yards and three touchdowns. He set school records for tight ends in career receptions and receiving touchdowns.
