2026 Outlook

Key tight end in Ben Johnson's pass-heavy Bears offense. One of the primary weapons available to Caleb Williams alongside Rome Odunze, Luther Burden, and rookie Coleston Loveland. With DJ Moore traded away, target distribution opportunity exists for Kmet to increase volume from 2025 season. Colston Loveland emerged as the team's reception leader in 2025 (58 catches), but Kmet remains a core part of the offensive scheme as a reliable outlet (per Chicago Bears 2026 Training Camp Preview: It's All About Caleb Williams).
