Colston Loveland a Must-Start for Regular-Season Finale
Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland is emerging as a go-to target in the offense and has all the makings of a future star. Loveland commanded a season-high 10 targets in last week's loss to the San Francisco 49ers, catching seven of them for 96 yards and a touchdown. The rookie first-rounder matched a season-high of six receptions and the most yards since Week 9 at Cincinnati. His role continues to expand in the ascending Bears offense, and his efficiency has been at a rare level for a rookie, recording the most total receiving EPA by a rookie tight end since 2017. With receiver Rome Odunze (foot) likely sidelined again, Loveland is a must-start in a divisional Week 18 matchup with the Detroit Lions that is projected to be a shootout with the highest total of the week (50.5).
