Bears' potential cap casualty would give Patriots their next superstar
"If there is any chance of Chicago moving on from their star tight end, the Patriots need to be on the phone immediately and get him to Foxboro."
"The issue for the Bears is that they spent heavily while turning over their 29th-ranked defense. After adding the likes of Neville Gallimore, Coby Bryant, Devin Bush, and Jack Sanborn, Chicago is left with a league-low $1 million in effective cap space."
"If the Bears can't work out a restructure or find a trade partner for Kmet, they can save $9 million by releasing him after June 1."
The Patriots have not made significant moves in free agency but are looking to address roster holes, particularly at tight end. Hunter Henry remains the primary option, while new signee Julian Hill is expected to contribute. Cole Kmet of the Bears is a potential cut candidate due to Chicago's financial constraints. If Kmet is released, the Patriots should act quickly to acquire him, as he has been productive since being drafted in 2020. The Bears' recent spending leaves them with limited cap space, making Kmet's release a possibility.
