The Bears are optimistic that tight end Cole Kmet’s knee injury isn’t a serious, long-term issue, but apprehensive about him being healthy enough to play Sunday against the Falcons.

Kmet hurt his knee in the second quarter of the Bears’ win over the Cardinals and exited at halftime with a career-high 107 yards on four catches. Players had Monday and Tuesday off, and coach Matt Eberflus said the medical staff will gauge Kmet’s mobility ahead of the first practice of the week Wednesday.
