Who Should I Start? Dalton Kincaid or Ja'Tavion Sanders

Tuesday, October 14, 5:35 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Tuesday that tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique), who did not play in the Monday night loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 6, is "day-to-day," according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. Additionally, veteran wide receiver Curtis Samuel (neck, ribs) is also considered day-to-day. Kincaid's injury isn't very serious, which is great news, especially with the Bills on their bye in Week 7. It means that both Kincaid and Samuel should be ready to go when the team returns to action in Week 8 to face the Carolina Panthers on the road on Oct. 26. Buffalo's offense struggled on Monday night against an improved Atlanta defense without Kincaid in the mix. Backup Dawson Knox found the end zone for the first time this year on Monday with Kincaid out, but it was his only catch of the game on just two targets. Fantasy managers looking for TE reinforcements going forward should probably avoid Knox.

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation heading into Sunday's matchup versus the Jets. The 22-year-old was trending in the right direction after logging full practice sessions on Thursday and Friday, so he'll make his return after suffering an ankle injury in the Week 3 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Sanders had 11 catches (14 targets) for 92 yards before going on the shelf. While he hasn't been productive throughout his career, desperate fantasy managers can look in his direction against a weak Jets defense. Sanders' return should mean less work for Tommy Tremble, who had four grabs for 39 yards in the Week 6 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
