Dalton Kincaid Hopes To Break Through "Rookie Wall"

Dalton Kincaid Hopes To Break Through "Rookie Wall"

11 months ago

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (shoulder) went catchless in Week 15 and played his lowest rate of the team's offensive snaps (53%) since Week 5, but he's good to go with a shoulder injury for a bounce-back chance against the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday. The first-rounder could be hitting the proverbial "rookie wall", tallying descending yardage totals in each of his past six games. But Kincaid's rapport with quarterback Josh Allen remains undeniable, with the first-year pass catcher ranking third among TEs in catch rate (82.4%). Kincaid's splits with and without Dawson Knox's are stark; he averages 6.2 catches for 56.2 yards with two total touchdowns in five outings without Knox and 3.9 catches for 31.0 yards with zero scores in nine contests with him. All told, Kincaid still deserves fringe TE1/2 treatment in Week 16 against a Chargers defense that's giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to enemy TEs.
