Kmet caught four passes for 48 yards in the Bears' 31-17 Week 18 loss to the Vikings, and he ended the season with 60 receptions for 612 yards.
Analysis: As a rookie in 2020, Kmet started to become a significant part of the offense down the stretch, and he built on that this year, more than doubling his targets, receptions and yardage in his sophomore campaign. He'll enter the third year of his four-year rookie deal in 2022, and he could be viewed as a breakout option if Jimmy Graham doesn't return since such a development would potentially lead to more red-zone targets. He's likely to be selected as a top-18 tight end in 2022 fantasy drafts.
Cole Kmet Comes up small in victory
Kmet caught two of four targets for 25 yards in the Bears' 29-3 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Kmet finished third on the team in targets, but the Chicago passing attack was inefficient, and Darnell Mooney was the only Bears pass catcher who had success in this contest. With at least three receptions in each of his last six games, he'll have a solid scoring floor in Week 18 against the Vikings.
