Tonyan caught three passes for 40 yards in the Bears' 37-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Although Cole Kmet (knee) was active in this game, Tonyan was the only Chicago tight end utilized in the passing game. Tonyan was third on the team with four targets, and the only Chicago player with more receiving yards was DJ Moore. This was the only time all season that the veteran tight end posted 20 or more yards, but if Kmet's back in his typical role next week at Green Bay, Tonyan would likely go back to seeing minimal work as a receiver.

Tonyan caught a 14-yard pass in the Bears' 27-16 win over the Cardinals on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan caught his first pass since Week 9, and he's yet to post 20 yards in any game. However, if Cole Kmet (knee) is forced to miss time, Tonyan could become Chicago's primary receiving tight end. When Tonyan was the Packers' top tight end in 2022, he caught 53 passes for 470 yards and two touchdowns, if he's put into a similar role with the Bears, he could be a streaming option at tight end.

Tonyan failed to catch his lone target in the Bears' 20-17 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan doesn't have a catch since Week 9, and he has just seven catches on the season. Unless Cole Kmet misses time, it's unlikely that Tonyan sees an increased role in the Chicago offense.

Tonyan played 17 of 71 snaps on offense and went without a target in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
The Bears brought in a pair of ex-Packers tight ends in Tonyan and Marcedes Lewis this offseason, but both players have seen their opportunities in the passing game take a hit with the move from Green Bay to Chicago. With Cole Kmet having stayed healthy so far this season, he's dominated the snaps at tight end every week while leaving scraps available for Tonyan and Lewis. Sunday's contest marked the third time in four games that Tonyan failed to draw a target.

Tonyan caught an 18-yard pass in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan is averaging less than one reception per game, and he's yet to post 20 yards in any contest. Unless he moves into a more prominent receiving role, he'll have limited fantasy value.

Tonyan caught one pass for eight yards in the Bears' 30-13 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan has yet to see more than two targets in any contest, and he has not posted more than 18 yards in a game this season. Unless his role increases, he'll retain low fantasy value.

Tonyan had an 11-yard reception in the Bears' 19-13 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan has recorded between 10 and 18 yards in each of his last three games as the Bears' No. 2 tight end. With Cole Kmet the team's top receiving tight end, it may be difficult for Tonyan to see more than a couple targets per week.

Tonyan caught both of his targets for 10 yards in the Bears' 40-20 win over the Commanders on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan has caught two passes in each of his past two games, but as long as Cole Kmet is on the field, Tonyan's upside will be limited. On the season, he has four catches for 28 yards in four games played.

Tonyan caught two passes for 18 yards in the Bears' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Tonyan's two receptions were his first catches of the season. As the clear No. 2 tight end behind Cole Kmet, Tonyan will likely struggle to see consistent target volume.

Tonyan failed to catch either of his two targets in the Bears' 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
After being sidelined for the season opener, Tonyan made his Chicago debut as the secondary tight end option behind Cole Kmet. Even though it's unlikely than Tonyan challenges Kmet for regular targets, he could see a couple passes thrown his way in many games.
