Impact Although Kmet had his lowest yardage output since Week 2, he finally found the end zone. With two or fewer catches in each of his last three games, he remains a a low-floor, low-upside fantasy option.

Targeted three times Kmet caught two of three targets for 32 yards in the Bears' 33-14 win over the Patriots on Monday.
Impact Although Kmet has played at least 90 percent of the snaps in each of the last five games, he's been targeted no more than four times in any of those contests. With just 148 yards and no touchdowns through Week 7, he'll continue to have limited upside unless the Chicago offense begins to throw the ball more often.

Minor role in loss Kmet caught one pass for 15 yards in the Bears' 12-7 loss to the Commanders on Thursday.
Impact Even though Justin Fields threw a season-high 27 passes, Kmet was targeted just three times. He's failed to surpass 16 yards in four of six games while not posting more than 46 yards in any game. Unless he sees a significant change in his role, he'll remain a lackluster option for fantasy.

Catches all targets Kmet caught all four of his targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 29-22 loss to the Vikings.
Impact Kmet secured every pass thrown his way, helping him post a season high in receiving yardage. Although he's now topped 40 yards in two of Chicago's last three games, his stock remains relatively mild ahead of Week 6's matchup versus the Commanders on Thursday night, especially without a touchdown to his name thus far.

Season-high receptions Kmet caught three passes for 13 yards in the Bears' 20-12 loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Impact Kmet tied for second on the Bears in targets with three, as Justin Fields threw 22 passes, which was Fields' highest total of the season. With five catches for 33 yards over four games, Kmet has been a disappointment for those who drafted him as a top-10 tight end.

Leading receiver in Week 3 win Kmet caught two of three targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Texans.
Impact Kmet nearly doubled the receiving yardage total of Darnell Mooney, who finished second on the team with 23 yards. That stat is much more of an indictment on Chicago's passing game than a compliment to Kmet, who came into the game without a catch on the season. Kmet will look to build on this performance in Week 4 against the Giants.
