Ruled out for Sunday
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Kincaid (knee) won't play Sunday against the Chiefs, Alec White of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Kincaid, who suffered a knee injury during Buffalo's win over the Colts this past Sunday, thus will target a potential return to action following the team's Week 12 bye, when the Bills host the 49ers on Dec. 1. In Kincaid's absence this weekend, Dawson Knox is slated to work as the top tight end and could see his most involvement in the passing game of the season thus far.

Remains sidelined Thursday
Kincaid (knee) wasn't participating in Thursday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kincaid, who sustained a knee injury during the Bills' Week 10 win over the Colts, also sat out practice Wednesday, so what the tight end is able to do Friday will loom large regarding his status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. If Kincaid is unavailable this weekend, Dawson Knox would step in as the Bills' top tight end and could see more involvement in the passing game.

Not practicing Wednesday
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that Kincaid (knee) won't participate in Wednesday's walk-through practice, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kinkaid hurt his knee in this past Sunday's win over the Colts, and with the tight end's looming absence from practice in mind, his status for this weekend's game against the Chiefs is uncertain. If Kincaid ends up sitting out Week, 11 Dawson Knox would step in as the Bills' starting tight end.

Dealing with knee issue
Kinkaid returned to play two snaps in the third quarter of Sunday's 30-20 win over the Colts before sitting out the remainder of the game due to the knee injury he suffered earlier in the contest, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. "Thought I could go and just didn't feel good enough to run and be able to go out there and protect myself," the tight end, when asked about his brief return to the game.
Analysis: Kincaid, who finished up the game with two catches on five targets for 24 yards, will likely get his knee checked out during the upcoming week. For the time being, consider the tight end day-to-day in advance of next Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Dawson Knox would step in as the Bills' starting tight end in Week 11 if Kinkaid is unable to play.

Doubtful to return Sunday
Kincaid is considered doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Colts due to a knee injury.
Analysis: After having previously exited the contest, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com relays that Kincaid returned for two snaps in the third quarter, but evidently the tight end hasn't shaken his knee issue. In his absence, Dawson Knox and Quintin Morris are available to handle Buffalo's TE duties.

Returns to Sunday's game
Kincaid (knee) returned to Sunday's game against the Colts, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Exits Sunday's game
Kincaid exited Sunday's game against the Colts after sustaining a knee injury.
Analysis: Prior to his departure, Kincaid had caught two of his four targets for 24 yards. While he's sidelined, Dawson Knox and Quintin Morris are next up for the Bills' tight end snaps.

Doesn't do much with 10 targets
Kincaid caught four of 10 targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Kincaid set a season high in targets, exceeding seven for the first time this season. The extra volume didn't lead to an uptick in production, but Kincaid has at least established a solid floor with over 30 yards in eight consecutive games after an 11-yard dud in the season opener. Kincaid will try to pick up the pace in Week 10 against the Colts.

Cashes in second TD
Kincaid hauled in four of seven targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Kincaid was the recipient of one of two Josh Allen passing touchdowns in Sunday's lopsided victory. The 25-year-old Kincaid finished tied for second in targets for Buffalo while cashing in his second receiving touchdown of the season. Kincaid continues to split work with fellow tight end Dawson Knox (2-50-0), with Kincaid being the preferred fantasy option ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Miami.

Clear for Sunday
Kincaid (collarbone) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Seattle.
Analysis: Kincaid opened Week 8 prep with back-to-back limited sessions due to a collarbone injury, but a full practice Friday has cleared him ahead of the weekend. Fellow TE Dawson Knox (ankle) also practiced fully to cap the week, so the Bills' top two options at the position will be available Sunday.

Another limited practice
Kincaid (collarbone) remained limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: While Kincaid maintained his practice participation level from Wednesday, Dawson Knox (ankle) returned to a limited session Thursday after being absent one day prior. Friday's injury report thus is slated to add context regarding the chances of Buffalo's top two tight ends playing Sunday against the Seahawks.

Limited in practice
Kincaid was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a collarbone injury.
Analysis: His ability to practice in any capacity at the start of the week suggests Kincaid's injury probably isn't too serious and is unlikely to prevent him from playing this Sunday at Seattle. Fellow Bills tight end Dawson Knox (ankle) was held out of Wednesday's practice entirely, potentially opening the door for Kincaid to play a few more snaps than usual Week 8.

Finding groove
Kincaid recorded three receptions on six targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans.
Analysis: While the rest of the Buffalo passing offense saw some fluctuation, Kincaid remained in a stable role. He's now seen either six or seven targets in four consecutive games while recording at least 45 yards in three of them. Kincaid narrowly missed out on a bigger performance, as he was tackled at the two-yard line after a 25-yard gain at the end of the third quarter. While it hasn't been a breakout season, Kincaid has become a consistent contributor.

Ready for Week 7
Kincaid (collarbone) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: The Bills placed a cap on Kincaid's reps at Wednesday's walkthrough and Thursday's practice, but the second-year pro was able to handle a full allotment to wrap up Week 7 prep and thus has been cleared to suit up this weekend. He has yet to have a breakout performance through six games on the campaign, with this past Monday's output versus the Jets marking season highs in catches (six), receiving yards (51) and targets (seven).

Remains limited Thursday
Kincaid (collarbone) remained listed as limited at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Kincaid, who also was deemed limited in Wednesday's walkthrough, sported a non-contact jersey during Thursday's session, per Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News. The tight end now has one more chance to upgrade to full practice participation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, but if he doesn't do so Friday, he'll presumably head into the weekend with an injury designation.

Limited in walkthrough
The Bills listed Kincaid as a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough with a collarbone injury.
Analysis: Kincaid logged 80 percent of offensive snaps in Monday's 23-20 win over the Jets and finished with six catches for 51 yards on seven targets. The tight end may have picked up an injury at some point along the way, but if he's able to increase his practice activity Thursday and/or Friday, he should be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Titans. Kincaid has led all Bills pass catchers with a 20.7 percent target share this season, but he could lose out on some looks after Buffalo acquired a…read more

Strong PPR performance
Kincaid corralled six of seven targets for 51 yards in Monday's 23-20 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Kincaid set a new high-water mark in both receptions and single-game yardage this season in Monday's tight win. The sophomore tight end had a better fantasy performance when he caught his lone touchdown of the season Week 3 against the Jaguars. Kincaid hasn't broke out with a big performance quite yet, but the 2023 first-round pick deserves consideration ahead of a Week 7 contest against Tennessee.

Two catches in Week 5 loss
Kincaid caught two of six targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Houston.
Analysis: Kincaid tied Mack Hollins for the team lead in both catches and targets as the Bills played without leading pass catcher Khalil Shakir (ankle). This subpar performance can be chalked up to a rare off day from Josh Allen, who completed only nine passes, but it continued a larger trend of disappointment for Kincaid, who has yet to reach the 50-yard threshold in a game heading into a Week 6 MNF clash against the AFC East rival Jets.

Seven targets in Week 4 loss
Kincaid caught five of seven targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Kincaid continued the trend of increasing his target and receiving yard totals in every game this season, topping his respective Week 3 marks of five and 41. He's still searching for the first 50-yard performance of his sophomore season after topping that mark in six of his last 11 regular-season games as a rookie. Kincaid will try to finally reach that threshold in Week 5 against the Texans.

Scores TD as volume ticks up
Kincaid caught three of five targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 47-10 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Kincaid scored a six-yard touchdown in the first quarter on the first of Josh Allen's four first-half touchdown passes. Allen has been spreading the ball around, and no player had more than six targets for Buffalo on Monday, but Kincaid's volume has been steadily increasing. The 2023 first-round draft pick had just two targets Week 1 and four Week 2 before setting another season high with five.

Four grabs in Week 2 win
Kincaid secured all four targets for 33 yards in the Bills' 31-10 win over the Dolphins on Thursday night.
Analysis: Kincaid had surprisingly been held to just one reception in the season-opening win against the Cardinals, and Josh Allen appeared intent on getting his second-year tight end involved early Thursday. Kincaid was on the receiving end of Allen's first two pass attempts, which totaled 17 yards. Kincaid still finished with a modest line overall, but he did have the second-most receptions and targets on the night for the Bills while also tying Ty Johnson for second-most receiving yards.

Just one catch Week 1
Kincaid caught one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 34-28 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Kincaid was expected to take on a larger role in Buffalo's passing game after the team traded away top receiver Stefon Diggs in the offseason, but the tight end was quiet to begin his second NFL season. Fellow tight end Dawson Knox also got two targets, catching one for 23 yards. Buffalo had 33 running plays compared to just 23 throws for Josh Allen, so a lack of volume could be a concern for Kincaid moving forward if he continues to split opportunities with Knox and the Bills keep calling a…read more

Prospects strong for 2024
Kincaid's depth of target increased from six yards to nine yards after offensive coordinator Joe Brady took over for Ken Dorsey during the second half of the 2023 season, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. Kincaid also averaged 14.5 yards per catch during the Bills' final two regular-season games and two postseason games.
Analysis: Even though he's entering just his second season, Kincaid may be Buffalo's best weapon in the receiving game, given that Khalil Shakir is the only wide receiver that's ever caught a regular-season pass from Josh Allen. Kincaid is coming off a 73-673-2 receiving line over 16 regular-season games in 2023, and he's a player to target in fantasy drafts after the top three or four tight ends are off the board.

Rested for preseason finale
Kincaid didn't see the field in Saturday's 31-26 preseason loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Buffalo held key starters like Josh Allen and Kincaid out of the preseason finale to ensure that they're healthy for the Sept. 8 regular-season opener against the Cardinals. Kincaid put up 673 receiving yards in a promising rookie regular season last year, and he's a likely candidate to pick up some of the slack following the offseason departure of wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who accounted for 1,183 receiving yards on 160 targets in the 2023 regular season.

To play over a quarter Saturday
The Bills plan for Kincaid and the starting offense to play one and a half quarters during Saturday's preseason game against the Steelers, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Buffalo deployed the first-team units for only a quarter during last week's preseason opener against the Bears, in which Kincaid secured his only target for seven yards. With Dawson Knox (groin/ankle) currently managing a pair of injuries, Kincaid could be in line for a larger portion of snaps than usual Saturday. The second-year pro looks like a breakout candidate at the tight-end position after having put up a 73-673-2 receiving line across 16 regular-season games as a rookie.

Shining at camp
Kincaid has been impressive throughout training camp, according to Alex Brasky of the Batavia Daily News.
Analysis: The 2023 first-round pick came on strong in the second half of his rookie season -- especially while fellow tight end Dawson Knox was out with a wrist injury -- and now becomes a candidate to lead the Bills in targets post-Stefon Diggs. It is possible Knox's superior size/blocking costs Kincaid some snaps (and therefore routes), but there's no doubt Kincaid will be one of the passing-game priorities whenever he's on the field. The Bills otherwise seem to be counting on WRs Curtis Samuel, Khalil…read more

Buffalo's leading receiver in loss
Kincaid caught all five of his targets for 45 yards in Buffalo's 27-24 divisional-round loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Analysis: The stat line explains more than just Kincaid having another strong game in what's been a fantastic rookie season, as the fact that his 45 yards led the team shows just how much the Bills couldn't get Stefon Diggs going in such a crucial game, or that Josh Allen has to play Superman with his legs for the team to keep up with elite opponents. As for Kincaid, his 73 receptions in the regular season were the fourth most in NFL history by a rookie tight end, and he's already passed teammate Dawson…read more

Shines in postseason debut
Kincaid caught three of six targets for 59 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 31-17 playoff win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Kincaid and Stefon Diggs (nine targets) were the focal points of the Buffalo passing game, though Kincaid's tight end teammate Dawson Knox did catch a touchdown pass while seeing only two targets. Even with Knox healthy again, Kincaid remains the top receiving tight end in this offense, seeing six or greater targets in each of the past three games while combining for 14 catches for 230 yards during that span.

Strong finish to rookie season
Kincaid finished with seven receptions on eight targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 21-14 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Kincaid led the Bills in targets and was one of three players to reach 80 receiving yards in the division title-sealing victory. The 2023 first-round pick underwhelmed at various points along his rookie journey, but the tight end finished strong with 11 receptions and 171 of his 673 yards coming in the final two weeks of the regular season.

Leading receiver in Week 17
Kincaid caught four of seven targets for 87 yards in Sunday's 27-21 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: The rookie tied end led the Bills in receiving yards while tying Stefon Diggs for the team lead in targets. Kincaid had caught just one of four targets over the prior two games combined while being listed as having a shoulder issue on Week 17 practice reports, but he appeared to be fully healthy Sunday in a bounce-back performance. He'll look to finish his first NFL season on a high note, and help Buffalo capture another AFC East title, in Week 18 against Miami.

His reps were capped throughout last week as well, but Kincaid entered the weekend without a designation and played 32 snaps without recording a catch in the Bills' 31-10 win over Dallas.

Goose egg in Week 15 win
Kincaid didn't catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Josh Allen completed just seven passes as Buffalo went with a run-heavy approach in the comfortable win. If the Bills' newfound success on the ground continues, Kincaid could be limited by a lack of volume again in Week 16 against the Chargers, especially with fellow tight end Dawson Knox healthy. Kincaid's yardage total has dropped in each of the past five games since the rookie compiled a career-high 81 receiving yards in Week 9 against the Bengals.

Kincaid (thumb/shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: Kincaid appeared to injure his shoulder in the second half against Kansas City last week, but he's avoided a serious issue on that front as well as with his listed thumb injury and is good to go for Week 15. Despite Dawson Knox's return from injured reserve this past Sunday, Kincaid still saw eight targets and played 78 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps.

Kincaid was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's walk-through session due to shoulder and thumb injuries.
Analysis: Bills head coach Sean McDermott said after Sunday's win over the Chiefs that Kincaid was day-to-day after requiring X-rays on his shoulder during the contest, but the rookie tight end is also apparently carrying a thumb injury into Week 15. Kincaid will have two more opportunities to increase his activity in practice and potentially clear up any concern about his availability for Sunday's game versus Dallas.

Day-to-day with shoulder injury
Kincaid (shoulder) is viewed as day-to-day as Sunday's game against the Cowboys approaches, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.
Analysis: While coach Sean McDermott relayed Monday that safety Micah Hyde (stinger) and defensive end A.J. Epenesa (rib) were in the week-to-week category, Kincaid was deemed day-to-day, which suggests that the tight end potentially could play through his shoulder issue this weekend. Added context with regard to his Week 15 status will arrive no later than Wednesday's practice, but if Kincaid is limited or out versus Dallas, Dawson Knox would be next up for Buffalo's TE snaps.

Getting X-rays on shoulder
Kincaid (shoulder) went to the X-ray room following Sunday's 20-17 win over Kansas City, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kincaid was deemed probable to return in the fourth quarter, but the Bills just had to kneel the game out on their final possession. The rookie tight end finished with five catches for 21 yards on eight targets. If Kincaid's shoulder injury hampers his availability for the team's Week 15 matchup with the Cowboys, Dawson Knox would likely see additional involvement in the passing game.

Five catches against Philly
Kincaid caught five of six targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: The rookie tight end's longest reception went for only 14 yards, but Kincaid still saw solid volume as he hauled in at least five passes for his sixth straight game. He sports a 39-356-2 line over that stretch, and even if Dawson Knox (wrist) is able to return following the Bills' Week 13 bye, it's hard to imagine Kincaid's role in the passing game shrinking significantly given the chemistry he's established with Josh Allen.

Leads team in catches Sunday
Kincaid caught six of seven targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 32-6 win over the Jets.
Analysis: The rookie tight end led the Bills in catches as he continues to see an elevated role in the absence of Dawson Knox (wrist). Over the last five games, Kincaid has put together a 34-318-2 line on 39 targets, and he could make an impact again in Week 12 against an Eagles defense that allowed five touchdowns to TEs through its first nine games.

Analysis: Kincaid set the pace for the Bills in receptions and tied for the team lead in targets while recording his second career touchdown on a 22-yard grab late in the first half. The rookie tight end has recorded at least five catches in four consecutive contests and scored in two of the last three, keeping his fantasy stock elevated heading into a Week 11 divisional battle against the Jets.

Kincaid secured 10 of 11 targets for 81 yards in the Bills' 24-18 loss to the Bengals on Sunday night. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Kincaid paced the Bills in receptions and targets with totals that also qualified as new personal bests in his nascent career. However, the rookie's standout night was somewhat marred by his particularly untimely lost fumble, which came at the Bengals' 11-yard line early in the fourth quarter and with Buffalo seemingly on the verge of reducing a 21-10 deficit. Nevertheless, the performance was still very productive from a fantasy perspective, and it brought Kincaid's line over the last three…read more

Stays hot in Week 8 win
Kincaid brought in five of seven targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 24-18 win over the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Kincaid posted a career-best 8-75 line in Week 7 against the Patriots, and he nearly eclipsed the yardage mark in particular during Thursday's second straight strong showing. The rookie also scored his first career touchdown on a 22-yard grab late in the second quarter, and he'll take a stellar 13-140 line on 15 targets over the last two games into a Week 9 road showdown against the Bengals on Sunday night, Nov. 5.

Ascends to top of depth chart
Kincaid is expected to serve as the Bills' No. 1 tight end for at least the next four games after Buffalo placed Dawson Knox (wrist) on injured reserve Thursday, Nick Wojton of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Knox was already in line to miss Thursday's game against the Buccaneers after he underwent surgery on his injured wrist earlier this week, but his move to IR means that he'll be forced to miss an additional three contests, at a minimum. Though Knox had started in all seven of his appearances this season and played at least 50 percent of the snaps on offense in each of those contests, Kincaid had seen a similarly sizable role due to the Bills' willingness to have the rookie first-round pick line…read more

Could get expanded role
Kincaid could be in store for more snaps after Bills head coach Sean McDermott noted Monday that fellow tight end Dawson Knox, is slated to undergo surgery on his wrist, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It's unclear how long the surgery will keep Knox sidelined, but the news would seemingly make Kincaid the team's clear-cut tight end in the passing game for at least a game or two, if not longer. Kincaid is coming off a career-best 8-75-0 receiving line in Sunday's loss to New England, so the arrow is definitely pointing up for the only tight end selected in the first round in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Breakout game in Week 7 loss
Kincaid (concussion) caught all eight of his targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 29-25 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: In his return from a one-game absence, Kincaid led the Bills in catches and receiving yards while finishing four targets behind Stefon Diggs' team-high total. This was easily the best game of the 2023 first-round pick's young career, as Kincaid's previous highs were five catches and 43 yards. Kincaid has 25 catches to Dawson Knox's 15 heading into Thursday's Week 8 game against the Buccaneers, but Knox continues to take priority in the red zone while Kincaid has yet to find the end zone in his…read more

Clears concussion protocol
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Kincaid has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kincaid missed the Bills' Week 6 win over the Giants while in the protocol, but he appears to have received the green light for full contact in addition to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist in advance of Wednesday's walk-through practice. Barring any setbacks during the week of practice, Kincaid shouldn't face any restrictions heading into Sunday's matchup with the Patriots. As such, expect Kincaid and Dawson Knox to work as Buffalo's top tight ends this weekend while Quintin…read more

Still in concussion protocol
Kincaid remains in the league's concussion protocol Monday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Kincaid was inactive for Sunday night's Week 6 win over the Giants. In Kincaid's absence, Dawson Knox played 75 percent of the snaps, his highest share since Week 1. Quintin Morris got in on 30 percent of the plays and caught the eventual game-winning touchdown. Kincaid has six more days to clear protocol ahead of Buffalo's Week 7 date with the Patriots.

Inactive Sunday
Kincaid (concussion) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Kincaid approached the contest listed as questionable after logging limited participation in practice this week but was evidently unable to clear the NFL's concussion protocol ahead of the contest. As a result, fellow TE Dawson Knox (wrist) figures to see added opportunities in the Bills offense Sunday. Kincaid will now target a potential return to action Oct. 22 against the Patriots.

Gets Week 6 questionable tag
Kincaid (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analysis: Buffalo's top two tight ends will take questionable tags into Sunday, as both Kincaid and Dawson Knox (wrist) weren't able to advance beyond limited participation in practice this week. While Knox could still play despite not practicing fully, Kincaid will need clearance from an independent neurologist ahead of Sunday's contest in order to exit concussion protocol and receive the green light to suit up. Beyond Knox and Kincaid, the Bills have Quintin Morris as the only other tight end on the…read more

Still in concussion protocol
Kincaid remains in the NFL's concussion protocol ahead of Friday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: That said, coach Sean McDermott noted that Kincaid is in line to practice in some capacity Friday. However, unless the tight end gains medical clearance in short order, it looks like he'll head into the weekend with an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Giants.

Still limited Thursday
Kincaid (concussion) remained a limited participant at practice Thursday, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.
Analysis: Per Fitzgerald, Kincaid sported a no-contact jersey during Thursday's session. The tight end now has one more chance to upgrade to full participation in practice and gain clearance from an independent neurologist ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

Logs limited practice Wednesday
Kincaid (concussion) was listed as a limited practice participant during Wednesday's walk-through session.
Analysis: Fellow tight end Dawson Knox (wrist) was also limited Wednesday, making the statuses of both players worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Giants approaches. Prior to exiting the Bills' Week 5 loss to the Jaguars, Kincaid logged 32 snaps and caught both of his targets for 19 yards.

Placed in concussion protocol
Kincaid was placed in the league's concussion protocol Monday, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.
Analysis: Kincaid was evaluated for a head injury in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars, but he was eventually cleared to return and finished with two catches for 19 yards on two targets. Buffalo hosts the Giants this upcoming Sunday night. With Dawson Knox also battling a wrist injury, the Bills could be down to Quintin Morris at tight end. Joel Wilson is on the practice squad.

Four grabs in Week 4 win
Kincaid brought in four of five targets for 27 yards in the Bills' 48-20 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Analysis: The rookie finished second in receptions and targets to Stefon Diggs on the afternoon for the Bills, and he outpaced position mate Dawson Knox by three catches and targets apiece. Kincaid has seemingly already developed into Josh Allen's preferred pass-catching option at tight end, as he now has 15 receptions for 99 yards on 17 targets, while teammate Dawson Knox has a more modest eight catches for 58 yards and one touchdown on 13 targets. Kincaid's next opportunity to build on an encouraging…read more

Catches two passes in win
Kincaid secured both of his targets for three yards in Sunday's 37-3 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: Kincaid played 35 of the Bills' 68 offensive snaps Sunday, while veteran tight end Dawson Knox handled 41 snaps. The rookie's two targets were his fewest in a contest so far in his young career, and he has yet to find the end zone through three games. With that said, Kincaid has shown chemistry with Josh Allen, which should continue to grow. In addition, Buffalo's use of 12-personnel on offense is affording the 23-year-old the opportunity to line up as a wide receiver at times while Knox…read more

Consistent role in offense
Kincaid recorded five receptions on six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Kincaid was heavily involved in the offense for the second consecutive game, and he now has 10 targets across two contests as a pro. Against the Raiders, he was regularly targeted by Josh Allen in the short areas of the field and also managed to show his ability to run after the catch to rack up additional yardage. The Bills appear willing to run a considerable amount of 12-personnel, allowing Kincaid to serve primarily as a receiver while Dawson Knox acts more as a traditional in-line tight…read more

Four catches in NFL debut
Kincaid caught all four of his targets for 26 yards in Monday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Jets.
Analysis: Kincaid put forth an efficient, albeit subdued, NFL debut. He had one more yard than veteran tight end Dawson Knox on the same number of targets. Both Knox and Kincaid should get their fair share of attention from quarterback Josh Allen in a pass-heavy Buffalo offense.

Not targeted
Kincaid wasn't targeted in Saturday's 24-21 preseason win over the Bears.
Analysis: Kincaid appeared to play about half the snaps on QB Josh Allen's lone drive, which featured seven pass attempts and a short rushing score from RB Damien Harris. The Bills still have Dawson Knox as their top tight end, so in practice Kincaid is competing for snaps with No. 3 receiver Khalil Shakir as much or more so than with anyone else. Kincaid will make his regular-season NFL debut on Monday Night Football in Week 1 against the Jets.

First catches as pro
Kincaid recorded three receptions on four targets for 45 yards in Saturday's 27-15 preseason loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Kincaid began his day with the first unit as Dawson Knox (finger) was forced to miss the game. His first catch as a pro came from Josh Allen, though Kincaid connected with Matt Barkley for gains of 21 and 16 yards. Kincaid is likely to have a significant role in the offense come Week 1 of the regular season, and he flashed his big-play potential in Saturday's exhibition contest.

Not targeted in preseason debut
Kincaid (back) suited up for Saturday's preseason opener against Indianapolis, but he was not targeted during his brief exhibition debut.
Analysis: While it would have been nice to see the first tight end taken in this year's draft get involved on offense, the fact that Kincaid suited up for the first of three exhibition contests at least confirms that he is completely over the back issues he experienced in the offseason. Buffalo traded up in the first round to draft the receiving tight end, and early reports indicate that the team has no intention of making the rookie sit behind the incumbent veteran, Dawson Knox, either. Perhaps we get a…read more

Expected to contribute right away
Kincaid is being fast-tracked into a prominent role heading into his rookie season, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Kincaid has impressed Buffalo's coaching staff with his route-running ability and hands. The rookie first-round pick out of Utah will battle incumbent starting tight end Dawson Knox for playing time, though the Bills will likely opt to utilize more 12 personnel to get both tight ends on the field simultaneously.

Signs rookie deal
Kincaid signed a four-year deal Saturday, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The Bills surprised plenty of people when they jumped up in the first round to select Kincaid out of Utah with the 25th pick, but there's little doubt about his pass-catching ability. He's already been participating in minicamp, though it may take much of the summer to determine how the Bills plan to utilize Kincaid in conjunction with the established Dawson Knox. There's a chance that Kincaid has enough athletic ability to see work in the slot, even at times when Knox is also on the field.
