Other than Colston Loveland thankfully being OK after this hip-drop tackle, the biggest takeaway might just be the Bears' willingness to embrace two-TE formations: Both Loveland and Cole Kmet were on the field for three of the first-team offense's seven snaps — one-drive sample be damned, that 43 percent multi-TE rate would be a decent jump from what we saw in 2025 (32.6% snaps in 12 personnel).

Two-TE formations jump to 43% usage; strategic shift supports Loveland role.

Bears TE was OK after a hip-drop tackle in preseason Week 2; biggest takeaway is Bears' willingness to embrace two-TE formations with both Loveland and Cole Kmet on field for three of first-team offense's seven snaps (43% multi-TE rate), a decent jump from 2025 (32.6% snaps in 12 personnel); source willing to buy into strategic shift considering it makes more sense to utilize heavy personnel vs. handing 32-year-old career backup Kalif Raymond a true three-down role.
