Dalton Kincaid 2024 Outlook: Emerging Tight End Connected To An Elite Quarterback
7 months agoGenerally speaking, rookie tight ends aren't great assets in redraft fantasy football leagues. That makes it even more impressive what Dalton Kincaid (and Sam LaPorta) accomplished in 2023. The rookie was definitively given the starting job when Dawson Knox suffered a wrist injury midway through the season. From Weeks 7 through 14, Kincaid secured at least five receptions in every matchup. The steady PPR floor propelled Kincaid to the TE9 in the stretch and a TE11 finish for the entire season. Kincaid finished second on the Bills in targets last season (91), trailing the now-departed Stefon Diggs. Gabe Davis also made his way out of Buffalo, opening 241 targets between the two wideouts. Rookie Keon Coleman hasn't proved anything yet and veteran Curtis Samuel doesn't profile as a top wide receiver. Given that Kincaid was a first-round draft pick and will be catching passes from Pro Bowl quarterback Josh Allen, his involvement won't decrease. Any statistical improvement will lead to another TE1 finish.
