Cole Kmet Limited with Back Issue as Week 9 Prep Begins
Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (back) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Although the 26-year-old wasn't able to practice in a full capacity, he still took a step in the right direction, as this was his first recorded on-field work since exiting the Bears' Week 7 contest. With four days until Chicago's game against the Bengals, it looks like there's a real chance that Kmet could suit up this weekend. If so, he'd likely step back into his role as the team's 1A tight end alongside the 1B, rookie Colston Loveland. The exact usage is a bit unclear, though, as Kmet had played at least 90% of the snaps in the Bears' first four games, but his snap share dropped to 52% following the bye. Regardless of the exact split, there is an opportunity for both tight ends to carve out fantasy-relevant roles this week against the Bengals. Cincinnati has been exposed by the position, allowing the most fantasy points to tight ends in 2025, as well as a league-high 10 touchdowns.
