Who Should I Start? Isaiah Likely or Dalton Kincaid

Friday, December 26, 11:42 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely had some big hopes and expectations entering this season after breaking out in a handful of games last year. He had a bunch of "almost big plays" this season, but ultimately, he's cracked the TE1 level twice and TE2 once. Now, the Ravens are probably operating without Lamar Jackson (doubtful - back), and even Mark Andrews has struggled to produce much over the last few weeks. Likely is riding two straight goose egg weeks into a Week 17 matchup with the Green Bay Packers who are eighth against tight ends in the last four weeks. The fourth-year pro projects as the TE27 on RotoBaller's rankings, which means there are better options on the waiver wire for fantasy managers looking for a streamer in their playoff matchup.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the New York Jets. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. Kincaid is returning from a one-game absence, and he hasn't played more than half of the snaps in a single contest since Week 5. The 26-year-old will likely continue to handle fewer snaps than Dawson Knox, but Kincaid should remain a top target for Josh Allen in the passing game, especially near the goal line. He ranks as a mid-range TE2 for Week 18 fantasy football.
