Cole Kmet has played with 3 Bears first-round QBs — this one feels different

Cole Kmet isn’t yet 25 ½ years old, yet he’s the grizzled face of the Bears’ offense.

He’ the only one left on the team who ever caught a pass from quarterback Mitch Trubisky, the team’s No. 2 pick in 2017. No other offensive player from the 2020 season, Trubisky’s last, is on the team anymore. Kmet is the only tight end left on the Bears who caught more than four passes from Justin Fields during the quarterback’s 2021-23 stint, too.
