Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland has struggled to find the end zone this season, finishing with just one reception for three yards in the home opener loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The No. 10 overall pick from Michigan last year led the NFC North with 713 receiving yards in 2025 but has been limited to 48% of ESPN fantasy lineups. Despite playing 86.6% of offensive snaps, Loveland faces double coverage on 7% of routes, the highest rate in the NFL.

Offensive coordinator Press Taylor insists he is built into the game plan, yet the ball has not found him. With quarterback Caleb Williams inactive due to a hamstring injury, Case Keenum will start against the Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia's defense has allowed only six receptions and 42 receiving yards to tight ends this season.

Loveland remains optimistic, stating he wants the ball and will take advantage of opportunities when they arise.
