7/03/25	More shade thrown Cole Kmet's way with On SI's All-NFC North team. Cole Kmet caught a higher percentage of passes thrown his way than any tight end in the NFL last year, 85.5%. The Bears veteran did it while still managing to average over 10 yards a catch—a higher average even than wide receiver DJ Moore—and did it for a coordinator in Shane Waldron who has proven he doesn't know how to use the tight end position. Waldron took Noah Fant after 62- and 68-catch seasons in Denver and reduced him to 82 total catches for the next two seasons. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/more-shade-thrown-col...

6/03/25	Chicago Bears minicamp report: Cole Kmet excited to work, compete with Colston Loveland. Bears fans weren't the only ones surprised when general manager Ryan Poles drafted tight end Colston Loveland in the first round of this year's draft. Tight end Cole Kmet told reporters at the first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday that he was taken aback when the selection was announced. “From there, you're all on board on it and kind of understand their vision,” Kmet said. The selection of Loveland was a surprise at the time given Kmet's role on the team and other roster needs. Source: https://www.shawlocal.com/bears/2025/06/03/chicago...
5/19/25	How Colston Loveland gives Ben Johnson's Bears a true wild card. The selection of another tight end by the Bears in Round 1 when they already had a $10 million-a-year tight end in Cole Kmet might mystify some still, but shouldn't. The key to the pick was how coach Ben Johnson used tight end Sam LaPorta in Detroit and, although he is a good athlete, Kmet doesn't have the speed or route-running ability to play an entirely different position. This is what Colston Loveland will play as their "move" tight end. Source: https://www.si.com/nfl/bears/how-colston-loveland-...
5/13/25	Where all the Bears' money went compared to rest of the NFL. Ryan Poles has restored balance to Bears salary cap spending, of this there is no doubt. This much has become apparent after the great majority of cap space has been spent and there's little left to dedicate for additional Bears free agents. There are a few surprising aspects of how they've spent money by positions, in relation to the rest of the league. Only four teams have spent more on tight ends than the Bears at $21.65 million, largely because of Cole Kmet's extension but Colston Loveland being a first-round pick does add on to this.

4/24/25	Chicago Bears results and live updates for Round 1 of the 2025 NFL Draft. Just like all the Bears fans in your life, there is no consensus among our beat writers on who the Bears should select in Round 1. Jason Lieser says that “in a draft the Bears acknowledge is more unpredictable than usual, the best thing they can do is stick to sound logic and address a clear need in the first round.” Offensive line, which means going with Texas' Kelvin Banks Jr., assuming LSU's Will Campbell and Missouri's Armand Membou are off the board. Patrick Finley goes the offensive route with Penn State tight end Tyler Warren, who could team with Cole Kmet to immediately give the Bears one of the most dynamic tight-end groups in the NFL.

2/18/25	Who Bears could draft to fill Ben Johnson's second tight end need. In 2020, the Bears drafted Cole Kmet with their first pick that year, a second-rounder at No. 43 overall. Since then, Ryan Poles and Ryan Pace drafted 39 times without taking tight end. Kmet is the only Bears tight end drafted since Adam Shaheen in 2017 and those two the only ones drafted since the start of the Marc Trestman coaching era in 2013. It might be time to accessorize at this position with another lower-cost, drafted player to develop instead of relying on castoff veteran free agents like Gerald Everett, Robert Tonyan, Ryan Griffin or Jesse James.
