Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Dalton Kincaid

Sunday, October 5, 1:36 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku scored and led his team in receiving on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, turning nine targets into six catches for 67 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately for Cleveland, it wasn't quite enough, as the offense couldn't seal the game and the defense surrendered the lead in the final 30 seconds. The big tight end, however, had his best game of the season with rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who found both Njoku and fellow tight end Harold Fannin Jr. for touchdowns. The Browns' typically volatile QB situation presents risk, but Sunday was an encouraging day for fantasy managers that showed Njoku still can be a productive fantasy player, even alongside Fannin getting targets and a rookie throwing the ball.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid continues to separate himself as the primary pass-catching option at the position, despite splitting snaps evenly in the offense. After seeing just two targets against the Saints in Week 4, Kincaid is a strong candidate to bounce back to his usual workload of around six targets per game. The third-year tight end has been a consistent playmaker, finding the end zone in three of four contests and ranking third on the team with 179 receiving yards on 14 catches. Most importantly, Kincaid leads Buffalo in touchdown receptions, solidifying his chemistry with Josh Allen in scoring situations. Fantasy managers should continue to view Kincaid as a dependable mid-tier TE1 who offers weekly touchdown upside, especially in a Bills offense that thrives on utilizing him in the red zone.
