Who Should I Start? Isaiah Likely or Dalton Kincaid

Saturday, November 22, 11:57 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely has yet to post a breakthrough performance and hasn't found the end zone yet this season. That's a big difference from his six touchdowns and four double-digit fantasy point finishes from last year. Likely has also been dealing with some nagging injuries for most of the year, which could be playing a part in everything. The New York Jets are 15th against opposing tight ends this season, and have only given up one touchdown and 160 yards to the position over the last four weeks. While Likely should see an extra target or two with Rashod Bateman (ankle) sidelined, it doesn't seem like a prime time for a breakout performance. He's currently projected as a low-end TE2, leaving him outside of the fantasy radar in most leagues.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Friday that tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is improving, and the team will see where he's headed going into a Week 13 matchup versus the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, Nov. 30, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Kincaid suffered a hamstring injury in the Week 10 loss to the Miami Dolphins and hasn't practiced or played since. The 26-year-old will have extra time to rehab before the Bills' Week 13 game, though, so fantasy managers will be keeping their fingers crossed that he can return by then. Quarterback Josh Allen is surely hoping that he'll have Kincaid available after being sacked a career-high eight times and finishing with no touchdowns for only the third time in his career in Thursday's loss to the Texans. Kincaid will immediately be back on the TE1 radar whenever he returns. He has caught 29 of his 36 targets this year for 448 yards and four touchdowns as one of Allen's top targets.
