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.

Ravens Select Josh Cuevas With 173rd Pick

Saturday, April 25, 11:56 AM

The Baltimore Ravens have selected Alabama tight end Josh Cuevas with the 173rd overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Cuevas spent two seasons with the Crimson Tide after stints with Washington and Cal Poly. While his most productive season came in 2022 at FCS Cal Poly, he finished his final season at Alabama with 411 yards and four touchdowns on 37 receptions. At 6'4" and 240 pounds, he lacks elite size for the position but wins with competitive toughness and could see reps at fullback after spending some time in the backfield in 2025. With the Ravens losing both Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar to free agency, they have now spent fourth and fifth-round picks on tight ends Matthew Hibner and Cuevas, with Cuevas profiling more as the Kolar or Patrick Ricard replacement than a meaningful player for fantasy.
