There's more on the line for Jaguars and Raiders after the season than in Sunday's meeting

One grab in loss Kmet caught a 14-yard pass in the Bears' 30-12 loss to the Vikings on Monday.

Impact Kmet has slowed down drastically since the Bears' Week 7 bye. The veteran has five games with 14 yards or fewer in five of eight games. In addition, Kmet has caught four passes for 40 yards over the last three games. The tight end will remain a risky lineup option in the fantasy playoffs.

Not targeted in Week 14 loss Kmet didn't see a single target in Chicago's 38-13 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Impact Despite the Bears playing from behind all afternoon, Caleb Williams attempted just 23 passes. Chicago simply couldn't move the football versus San Francisco and ran just 52 offensive plays. Kmet was on the field for 92 percent of the offensive downs, and he's played at least 92 percent of the snaps in five consecutive games. That playing time alone keeps him on the fantasy radar ahead of a Week 15 date with the Vikings.

Brings in all three targets Thursday Kmet recorded three catches (on three targets) for 26 yards during Thursday's 23-20 loss at Detroit.

Impact Four days removed from earning 10 targets during a defeat to the Vikings, Kmet fell back to what he more or less has received most weeks this season (26 targets in the nine games in which he didn't see double-digit looks). Elsewhere in the Bears' skill ranks Thursday, DJ Moore led the way by a large margin with an 8-97-1 line on 16 targets, Keenan Allen scored twice among his five catches for 73 yards on eight targets, and Rome Odunze (2-25-0 on six targets) and D'Andre Swift (2-35-0 on three targets) also got in the act. With that knowledge, Kmet likely will resume his modest role in Chicago's offense in his next game Sunday, Dec. 8 in San Francisco.

Earns 10 targets Kmet recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 30-27 overtime loss to the Vikings.

Impact Kmet benefitted from a particularly pass-heavy game script for the Bears, commanding double-digit targets for the second time this season. He took advantage by tallying long gains of 20 and 14 yards, the latter of which directly led to a Bears' field goal just before halftime. Kmet's spike performances have been tied directly to more passing volume from Caleb Williams, and the Bears could be forced to the air often in a Week 13 matchup against the Lions given the defense's stout run defense. Even given that possibility, he's a risky option as he's seen five or fewer targets in all but two contests on the campaign.

Tallies three catches Sunday Kmet hauled in all three targets for 42 yards during Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Packers.

Impact QB Caleb Williams experienced a bounceback Week 11 against a Green Bay defense that often put up little resistance, and the Bears' top three wide receivers all earned at least seven targets. Meanwhile, Kmet again remained mostly quiet since the Bears' Week 7 bye, putting together a cumulative 6-69-0 line on eight targets over the last four games. This may be the status quo moving forward for the fifth-year pro, and his next chance to produce will arrive next Sunday versus the Vikings.

Another poor perfromance Kmet caught two passes for 13 yards in the Bears' 19-3 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Impact After the Week 6 game, Kmet was one of the highest-scoring tight ends in fantasy. Since the Bears Week 7 bye, the tight end has accounted for three catches and 27 yards in three games. Despite the early-season success, Kmet will be a risky weekly fantasy option unless the Chicago offense gets back on track.

Not targeted in defeat Kmet posted no stats in the Bears' 29-9 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.

Impact During Weeks 3 through 6, Kmet was one of the highest scoring tight ends in the league. Since Chicago's Week 7 bye, the offense has been terrible. In the last two games, Kmet has one catch for 14 yards. Unless the Bears figure out their woes on offense, Kmet should be considered a boom-or-bust fantasy option.

Hot streak ends Kmet caught a 14-yard pass in the Bears' 18-15 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.

Impact With Caleb Williams completing just 10 passes for 131 yards, there was not much production to go around for the Chicago pass catchers. The one target Kmet saw was the first time since Week 1 that the tight end had fewer than three targets. Aside from one game with 10 targets, Kmet is averaging three targets over his other six games. Due to the lack of consistent passes thrown to Kmet, the potential for a poor performance can occur at any time.
