Cole Kmet expected to be featured more in new offensive system

Josh Schrock reports TE Cole Kmet has a “golden opportunity” to be a staple of the new Chicago Bears offense.

Fantasy Impact: Entering his third season with the Bears, Kmet has finished no higher than TE21 despite playing every game the last two seasons. With the departure of Matt Nagy, the Bears offense as a whole is expected to take a step forward in Justin Fields’ second year. The door is open for Kmet to be a legitimate fantasy option at the TE position in 2022, as Chicago truly lacks a second passing game option behind Darnell Mooney. Kmet is currently ranked TE11 and is a great late-round draft target with real upside based on his clear path to targets if he can become a reliable option for Justin Fields.
