When the Chicago Bears took Michigan tight end Colston Loveland with the 10th overall pick in April's draft, the implications for incumbent No. 1 tight end Cole Kmet were clear and impossible to ignore. Trade rumors have naturally lurked on some level ever since.

Kmet openly admitted he was "taken aback" by Loveland being drafted, but an early conversation with head coach Ben Johnson unveiled a vision he was going to be a part of.
