Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid led his team with 45 receiving yards as they were beaten 27-24 by the Kansas City Chiefs in Sunday's Divisional Round, gathering each of his five targets. Kincaid held on for a tough 15-yard grab along the right sideline on Buffalo's opening possession for his longest pickup, and quarterback Josh Allen turned to him frequently late in the game as a chain-moving presence. There were plenty of ebbs and flows to Kincaid's rookie campaign, but it should be deemed a success overall. The 24-year-old first-rounder concluded his season with either five catches or 59 yards in each of his final four showings all told, bouncing back from a shaky string of play and establishing himself as one of Allen's new favorite weapons. Gabe Davis (knee) is an unrestricted free agent this spring, meaning Kincaid could enter 2024 as the Bills' No. 2 target behind Stefon Diggs and a top-12 option in summer drafts.
After experiencing a steady decline in productivity for nearly two months, Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has worked his way back into fantasy TE1 talks for Sunday's Divisional Round versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Kincaid has recorded 233 yards and a touchdown in his latest three games, and the Bills have gotten him more involved downfield. Notching season highs in air yards in each of these three contests, Kincaid put his field-stretching aptitude on full display with a 29-yard catch-and-run up the seam in last Monday's wild-card triumph over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The first-round rookie will have his work cut out to hit paydirt again, since the Chiefs are tied for the third-fewest TDs allowed to enemy TEs (four) this year. With Gabe Davis (knee) still out due to a PCL sprain, Kincaid is in line to act as Buffalo's complementary passing option behind alpha target Stefon Diggs and is a fairly safe DFS play at a $4,600 cost on DraftKings.
Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid stung the Pittsburgh Steelers with a team-leading 59 yards as his squad advanced to the second round in Monday's 31-17 wild-card triumph, also catching a touchdown. The first-round rookie caused problems all evening for a defense struggling to keep him in check, drawing a holding penalty in the fourth quarter. In relation to the box score, Kincaid made a tough 20-yard grab on Buffalo's first possession to kick-start a scoring drive that ended with Dawson Knox hitting paydirt. Kincaid then streaked up the seam for a 29-yard score after a Pittsburgh turnover, but the Steelers later broke up a goal-line pass at the last minute to deny what would have been Kincaid's second TD of the day. Racking up 76.7 yards per game over his last three contests, Kincaid would remain a popular DFS play next Sunday if No. 2 receiver Gabe Davis (knee) remains out for the Divisional matchup versus the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Buffalo Bills traded up to draft tight end Dalton Kincaid with the 25th overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft, and they have to be pleased with the early returns. Though there were some bumps along the way, there was a lot to like out of Kincaid's rookie year, considering that early-career tight ends tend to struggle. Kincaid effectively settled in as Buffalo's power-slot weapon, which was part of what the team had envisioned for the Utah product. Kincaid collected 73 of his 91 passes for 673 yards and two touchdowns during the regular season, and he enters Monday's postseason debut against the Pittsburgh Steelers with 80-yard showings in each of his prior two outings. With No. 2 wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) out for this matchup, Kincaid could pick up some extra attention from quarterback Josh Allen. While Kincaid's $4,600 DraftKings cost isn't the most expensive, DFS players may be digging deeper into the bargain bin for salary relief.
Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid notched his second consecutive 80-yard effort in Week 18's 21-14 victory over the Miami Dolphins as the team brought home the AFC East title, pulling in seven of his eight targets for 84 yards. Kincaid reprised his role as quarterback Josh Allen's safety net on Sunday, after the 2023 first-rounder recently appeared to be falling out of his signal-caller's favor. Kincaid did lose out on a short touchdown catch, watching Dawson Knox come down with the go-ahead score in the fourth quarter. Having now recorded 171 yards in his past two outings, however, Kincaid will roll into the postseason with quite a bit of momentum after Buffalo netted the No. 2 seed in the AFC with the victory. If Gabe Davis (knee) isn't ready to play by next Sunday's Wild Card tilt versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, Kincaid should be back in business as an attractive DFS option.
