Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or Dalton Kincaid

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (pectoral) is being activated off Injured Reserve and will play in his team's Week 13 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Waller has been sidelined by a pectoral injury since Week 7. Across four games before getting injured, the 33-year-old recorded 10 catches for 117 yards and four touchdowns on 12 targets. Waller was emerging as a favorite end-zone target of Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and he played a season-high 69% of Miami's offensive snaps in Week 6, his final full game before getting injured. Entering Week 13, the Saints rank in the bottom ten among all NFL teams in passing touchdowns allowed (20). Waller profiles as a borderline top-12 fantasy tight end in his matchup on Sunday against New Orleans.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) has missed two straight games due to a hamstring injury. The 26-year-old was able to log limited practices on both Thursday and Friday, so he may be on track to make his return in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Across eight games this season, Kincaid has recorded 29 catches for 448 yards and four touchdowns on 36 targets. When healthy, he's been one of Bills quarterback Josh Allen's favorite red zone targets. However, Kincaid's playing time is consistently limited by how the Bills deploy fellow tight ends Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes. If Kincaid is limited by his hamstring issue, the team could choose to restrict his playing time even further against Pittsburgh. If he's active, Kincaid profiles as a borderline low-end TE1 in Week 13.
