Dalton Kincaid Headshot

TE Dalton Kincaid caught 7 of 8 targets for 38 yards in Week 6, finishing as the TE14. He also had a TD called back due to holding, so he nearly had a TE1 week. His playing time and routes looked similar to the rest of the season, with 49 snaps and 22 routes. The difference was a 36.4% target-per-route rate, after Kincaid was at 15% or lower in each of the previous three games.

Kincaid led the Bills with 8 targets, a 28% share. He played 72% of snaps, with slightly more time in 12 personnel and slightly less in 11 personnel than usual. Dawson Knox played 47 snaps but ran 20 routes for just 1 target, so the receiving role belongs to Kincaid. The efficiency lagged at 4.75 yards per target. That’s a low ceiling unless the TDs come.

Kincaid only had one catch in Week 5, so the target bump stands out. However, it came with DJ Moore out, and 5.4 yards per catch shows he is an underneath target. The talent and usage is there, but Kincaid still needs his playing time to stay at this level.

Buffalo is on bye in Week 7. Baltimore allows the 19th-most adjusted PPR points to TEs and ranked 17th in pass defense power heading into Week 6. Minnesota allows the third-fewest points to TEs in Week 9. Kincaid can be a low-end TE1.
