Is Colston Loveland playing tonight? Why Bears TE is off to slow start in Week 17

1 hour ago 3

After a quiet start to his career, Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland has been more consistent in the second half of the season.

Loveland enters Week 17 with 528 receiving yards, which ranks third on the team behind DJ Moore and Rome Odunze.

However, Loveland hasn't been much of a factor early on in the Week 17 game against the San Francisco 49ers.

Here's a closer look at what's happening.

Is Colston Loveland playing tonight?

Yes, Loveland is active and healthy, he just hasn't gotten going yet.

Loveland didn't have much of a chance to get going, though, as the Bears went three-and-out on their first drive.

It shouldn't be much longer before Loveland gets on the board with a catch.
