Is Cole Kmet Ready To Step Up?
3 years agoChicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet will be tasked with raising his game to become the team's TE1 this season. The former second-round pick has battled a hamstring injury recently but all accounts have pointed towards Kmet having a strong camp. The Bears will go up against the Rams in Week 1 and Kmet will face a defense that allowed the ninth fewest fantasy points to opposing tight end's last season. The Rams allowed only three touchdowns to the position over their final 10 games and Kmet caught only two passes for 45 yards against them in Week 7 last season. Kmet's arrow in general is pointing up for the 2021 season but could struggle to post top-12 tight end numbers in Week 1.
