The Chicago Bears agreed to a four-year extension worth $50 million with tight end Cole Kmet, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and Field Yates.
Kmet's deal includes $32.8 million guaranteed, Schefter and Yates add.
The deal is the first extension general manager Ryan Poles has handed out since joining the Bears' front office in 2022, per ESPN's Courtney Cronin.
Kmet, a second-round pick in the 2020 draft, has started every game over the past two seasons. He recorded a career-high seven touchdowns in 2022.
His 544 receiving yards led the Bears last year as the team struggled to generate a passing attack.
