        Cole Kmet's Absence Could Boost Luther Burden

        Cole Kmet's Absence Could Boost Luther Burden

        Bears TE Cole Kmet will be placed on season-ending IR with the right knee injury he suffered in Thursday's win over the Patriots, HC Ben Johnson announced. We're still waiting for details on the injury. While Kmet hasn't been a fantasy factor, he played 65% of Chicago's offensive snaps and ran a route on 37% of pass plays through Week 6. That's a sizable role that needs replacing. Rookie Sam Roush will step in as the Bears' No. 2 TE but might not assume all of Kmet's work. We might see fewer 2- and 3-TE sets from the Bears, which would be particularly good news for WR Luther Burden. Burden has run a route on just 32% of multi-TE plays so far this season.

        Bears TE Colston Loveland had no catches on only 2 targets while the Bears offense exploded for 59 points against the Carolina Panthers. Fellow TE Cole Kmet went 2-35-1. The raw fantasy production is extremely concerning, but don’t panic just yet. Loveland led the entire Bears weapons in snaps (65) and routes run (35). So, the underlying usage was still solid.

        The Chicago Bears selected Stanford TE Sam Roush in Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Roush spent all four college seasons at Stanford, capping his time with a career-best 49-545-2 receiving line. Roush profiles as a traditional inline TE, with blocking and red-zone work his primary strengths. He wins contested catches and uses his frame to break tackles. Among the 27 TEs invited to the NFL Combine, Roush ranked 21st in 2025 aDOT (6.3), and third in team market share of receiving yards (22.9%). He ranked seventh in 2025 receiving yards per team pass attempt (1.51) and 19th in receiving yards per route run (1.39). He enters the league at 22 years old.

        The Bears entered a crucial Week 16 rematch with the Packers down two of their top three WRs and needed D.J. Moore to step up. Moore did dramatically, catching a 46-yard TD in overtime as the Bears extended their lead in the tight NFC North race. Moore set a new season-high with 97 receiving yards and tied his best mark with 7 targets.

        The Chicago Bears scored 31 points on offense against the Pittsburgh Steelers with three rookies overtaking the veterans in front of them. RB Kyle Monangai went 12-48-1 on the ground outperforming D’Andre Swift who only went 8-15-0. TE Colston Loveland went 4-49-1 compared to Cole Kmet’s 1-3-0. Finally, WR Luther Burden III surpassed Olamide Zaccheaus again this week with Burden going 3-46-0 on 5 targets while Zaccheaus caught his lone target for 6 yards.
