Dalton Kincaid fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 3 (2025). Should you start or sit Dalton Kincaid for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end TE1
ANALYSIS: Dalton Kincaid showed flashes of upside in his rookie season, but took a significant step back in his second season. As a rookie, Kincaid caught 73 passes for 673 yards and two scores. However, in Year 2, the former first-round pick took the backseat in the Buffalo offense, tallying a much lower 448 yards and two scores on 44 catches.
Through the first two games of the 2025 campaign, Kincaid looks like his rookie self and appears to be on track to enjoy a solid season. In the season opener, Kincaid brought in all four of his targets for 48 yards and a touchdown. In Week 2, the Bills did not need to push the ball all downfield as much, which limited Kind to just four catches (on four targets) for 37 yards.
Despite this, seeing Kincaid see at least four targets in back-to-back games is a promising sign. It suggests he should remain a key part of the passing attack, even while playing alongside Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir.
On Thursday, Kincaid has a favorable matchup against the Miami Dolphins, who have allowed the 10th-most PPR points to opposing TEs this season. While he will continue to be the No. 3 pass catcher in this offense, in a favorable matchup like this, he should be in a good position to tally double-digit PPR points.
This makes him a low-end TE1 in all standard formats in Week 3.
