After a historic rookie season with the Buffalo Bills in 2023, starting tight end Dalton Kincaid went through some major issues in his sophomore campaign with the organization.
The Utah product missed four games to injuries and put up less catches, yards, touchdowns, and yards per catch than his impressive first season with the team.
So startling was his drop, that Bills general manager Brandon Beane explained that the team needed to see him bulk up to prepare for the grueling stretches that an NFL season can bring.
Despite his struggles, not everyone is down on the third-year veteran.
In Pro Football Focus' recent breakout candidates for each team, Kincaid was the choice for Buffalo in 2025.
"Kincaid missed time due to injury in Year 2 and wasn’t able to surpass his rookie receiving numbers, however, his efficiency did improve slightly, including his yards per reception (10.4), yards per route run (1.54) and receiving grade (71.1), " Jonathan Macri wrote, "With the Bills not adding significant target competition to the offense this offseason, Kincaid will have another opportunity to be the team’s top target in the passing game."
Buffalo needs a good receiving tight end for their offense. It's a reason why Josh Allen has been such a good signal-caller in recent years as the reigning league MVP.
Kincaid was Buffalo's choice two years ago. Now, it's up to the tight end to prove Buffalo right once and for all this season.
