Who Should I Start? Dalton Kincaid or Cade Stover

The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia writes that Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has a bit of a buy-low, post-hype sleeper feel about him as he enters the 2025 season. Kincaid is fully healthy this offseason and is likely to take the team's advice to get stronger. The 25-year-old former 25th overall pick in 2023 out of Utah had lofty expectations going into last year after catching 73 passes for 673 yards and two touchdowns in his rookie campaign. He failed to meet those expectations last year, catching 44 passes for 448 yards and two TDs in 13 regular-season games. In addition to Kincaid, Buffalo is hoping receivers Keon Coleman and Curtis Samuel can build on their success from a year ago. The Bills spread things out as an offense in 2024, but Kincaid's knee injury didn't help his cause. Target him a a low-end TE1 in fantasy with upside for more in his third season.

Houston Texans rookie tight end Cade Stover (collarbone) suffered a broken collarbone in the wild-card win over the Los Angeles Chargers last Saturday and will require season-ending surgery. The Texans officially placed Stover on Injured Reserve on Tuesday. The 24-year-old first-year player caught all four of his targets for 28 yards in the 32-12 win over the Bolts and played 36 offensive snaps. Stover was mostly a blocker for the Texans in his first year in the NFL and took a back seat pass-catching-wise to starter Dalton Schultz, as he had only 15 catches for 133 yards and one touchdown on 22 targets over 15 regular-season games. If Teagan Quitoriano (calf) isn't activated from IR to play this Saturday in the Divisional Round against the hosting Kansas City Chiefs, Irv Smith Jr. would operate as the primary backup to Schultz.
