Who Should I Start? Dalton Kincaid or Xavier Worthy

Friday, December 5, 1:38 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) will be listed as questionable to play this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14, according to head coach Sean McDermott. The head coach said he needs to see Kincaid be "functional" to play. Kincaid has not played since injuring his hamstring in Week 10. The 26-year-old was close to suiting up for last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, but a knee injury was added this week, and he was seen wearing a brace on his left leg during Thursday's practice. He could be a game-time decision on Sunday. If Kincaid can return in Week 14, he'll immediately be back in the TE1 picture in fantasy football. Before his hamstring injury, the former first-rounder had 29 catches for 448 yards and four touchdowns in eight games. Kincaid ranks as the TE8 with 10.4 half-PPR fantasy points per game in 2025.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy was listed on the injury report this week with an ankle injury, but logged two full practices before being removed from the report ahead of Thursday's game. Worthy was second in the receiving pecking order, behind Rashee Rice, in last week's win over the Indianapolis Colts. Worthy caught four passes for 59 yards on eight targets in Week 12. Despite his solid performance last week, Worthy has been a difficult player for fantasy managers to trust this season. In Weeks 10 and 11, Worthy failed to catch more than three passes and did not eclipse 30 receiving yards in either game. With Rice dominating targets and Kelce remaining heavily involved, Worthy has often been relegated to third or fourth in targets. Worthy will have a chance to have a boom game this week against the Cowboys, who have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. This week's matchup is also tied for the highest total of the week, meaning there should be a lot of points scored for both teams. Worthy is ranked WR43 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting him deep-league flex territory mainly due to his inconsistency. That said, fantasy managers could roll the dice with Worthy this week since the passing volume should be high for the Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day.
