Jackson Hawes Could See Minor Role Increase if Kincaid Misses Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 2:49 PM

Buffalo Bills rookie tight end Jackson Hawes could see a small uptick in opportunities if Dalton Kincaid (oblique) is ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup against Atlanta. The fifth-round pick has appeared in every game this season but has been used sparingly in the passing game, seeing just four targets through five weeks--hauling in all of them. While Hawes' strong blocking skills have earned him steady snaps, he remains a distant option in Buffalo's offensive pecking order. Even with a potential increase in playing time, his fantasy value is negligible, and he should be avoided in all formats unless his role expands dramatically in the coming weeks.

Elijah Arroyo Punctuates Strong Summer with a Long Touchdown

Monday, August 24, 5:13 AM

Second-year tight end Elijah Arroyo caught the final two passes of Seattle's opening drive in Sunday night's preseason matchup with the Titans, quickly moving the Seahawks from midfield into the end zone. Arroyo caught a 14-yard pass from quarterback Drew Lock on a play designed to motion him into space before the two connected on a 36-yard touchdown strike on the next play. After catching only 15 passes as a rookie, Arroyo has been a training camp standout for the defending Super Bowl champions, and he could find the field frequently in Seattle's tight end-heavy offense, potentially pushing 2025 breakout AJ Barner for some of the more valuable opportunities at the position. With the NFL trending toward more 12 and 13 personnel usage, there is no shortage of draftable fantasy tight ends, so Arroyo is not a player who needs to be targeted as RotoBaller's TE46, but if he can carry the momentum of a solid summer into the regular season, he could quickly work his way into the streaming conversation.
