Bears practice report:

Full: Teven Jenkins, Noah Sewell, Equanimeous St. Brown

Related Players: D.J. Moore, Byron Pringle, Dante Pettis, Robert Tonyan

Justin Fields' legs yet again saved a mediocre passing game last week, and it looks like he may have to do without some of his best weapons yet again. D.J. Moore should be peppered with targets upon his return, which will make him a safe WR2 for Championship Week.

Bears and TE Cole Kmet reached an agreement on a four-year, $50 million extension, including $32.8 million guaranteed and $20 million in new first-year cash.

Chicago locks in Kmet, who has become a favorite target of QB Justin Fields. This quells any consternation about veteran TE Tonyan taking a ton of snaps away from him in 2023, but that still doesn't make Kmet a reliable fantasy option, as he had three or fewer receptions in 10/17 games last season despite having a career year with a 50-544-7 line. Kmet was among the most "over-performing" touchdown scorer last season, and we're projecting him for much less this season. He will be a streaming option in plus matchups yet he is going off boards as an overpay at the TE10.

Coach Matt LaFleur was quoted, "It's a little early to say that right now. That was his first action in team periods. We'll see how he responds."

This would be a bummer for anyone looking to stream Robert Tonyan against the Vikings to kick off the season, but it sounds like this wouldn't last deep into the season as the tight end continues his recovery from a torn ACL. When on the field, Tonyan provides incredible touchdown equity on an offense that is sorely going to miss Davante Adams.

The Packers got a number of important players back at practice, including; Christian Watson, Elgton Jenkins, and Tonyan.

This was the tight end's first time on a practice field since tearing his ACL in Week 8 last season. Tonyan is set to return for the beginning of the regular season and remains an interesting late-round target at a week position. He was tied for the lead league with his 10 touchdowns in 2020.

The Green Bay Packers are re-signing TE Robert Tonyan to a one-year deal.

Tonyan is recovering from a torn ACL and is not expected to have an impact offensively until the middle of the 2022 season.

Packers TE Robert Tonyan suffered a tear in his left ACL, according to Field Yates of ESPN via Tonyan's agent, Jack Bechta. His season is over.

Horrible blow for Tonyan after starting to produce in the Packers offense. Marcedes Lewis is the lead tight end...for now.
