Kmet's 45 receiving snaps led all other Bears tight ends by 35, and ranked fourth on the team overall. He somehow finished as the only Bears "pass catcher" who failed to earn a single target. Kmet can be dropped in re-draft leagues.
When you get beaten by a Hail Mary on a play that featured one of your defensive backs jawing with the crowd rather than covering the guy who eventually caught the touchdown, it makes sense that most of the focus is on what went wrong at the end of the game.

Kmet wants his Chicago teammates to be more focused during practice
Caleb Williams targeted his tight ends just three times all afternoon, with Gerald Everett seeing two of those targets. Kmet, who was coming off a 5-70-2 performance against the Jaguars in Week 6, entered the day averaging 4.8 targets per game. That said, he was a forgotten man against the Commanders and will hope to bounce back in Week 9 against the Cardinals, where he'll be a fringe TE1/TE2.
