Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Dalton Kincaid

Friday, November 7, 11:59 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has logged 288 offensive snaps this season, the most on the team at the position. However, that hasn't exactly helped his production. In Knox's eight appearances, he's caught only nine passes (14 targets) for 118 yards. He also has only one touchdown, which occurred in the Week 6 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Knox was once a go-to option for quarterback Josh Allen, with the 28-year-old combining for 15 touchdowns in the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Unfortunately, he's regressed significantly since the start of the 2023 campaign, finding the end zone only four times. Granted, the 2019 No. 96 overall pick could have a decent fantasy showing at some point before the end of the year. Still, he's tough to trust, especially if Dalton Kincaid is on the field. With that in mind, Knox isn't worth starting in any fantasy format in Week 10 against the Miami Dolphins.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) will not practice on Wednesday, per Jak Skurski of The Buffalo News. Kincaid injured his hamstring in the Week 10 upset loss to the Miami Dolphins and is considered week-to-week. A DNP for the first practice of the week is a bad sign for Kincaid's chances of playing this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11. Fantasy managers who have been using Kincaid as their TE1 need to make sure they have a backup plan in place. In addition to Kincaid, Buffalo's top wideout, Khalil Shakir (rib), is nursing a rib injury that makes him questionable to play this week. If Kincaid cannot get the green light to face the Bucs, Dawson Knox would become a TE2 streamer for fantasy managers in need of help at the position. Kincaid currently ranks second on the Bills with 448 receiving yards and leads the team with four touchdown receptions.
