Dalton Kincaid Week 2 Outlook - Bills at Dolphins

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Kincaid's Week 1 stat line was disappointing, to say the least. He only had a 4.3% target share, 3% air-yard share, and a 6.3% first-read share despite having an 80% route share and running 58% of his routes from the slot. Better days are ahead for Kincaid, though. Playing time was the big worry entering the year with Dawson Knox back in the fold. Knox only had a 43% route share, so Kincaid is the clear starter. Let's remind ourselves of Kincaid's talent before freaking out over a one-game sample. Last year in Weeks 7-18, he ranked seventh in target share (19.0%), ninth in receiving yards per game (50.5) and first-read share (21.0%), and 12th in YPRR (1.85). Fire Kincaid back up this week against a Miami defense that last year allowed the seventh-most fantasy points per game, the 11th-most receiving yards, and the sixth-most receiving touchdowns (tied) to tight ends.
