Who Should I Start? Juwan Johnson or Dalton Kincaid

Saturday, December 6, 12:49 AM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson brought in five of nine targets for 39 yards in the Week 13 loss to the Dolphins. The nine targets were a team-high and his most since Week 2. He will look to build on this momentum in a matchup against the Buccaneers, where he had five receptions for 53 yards earlier in the season. The Saints will be shorthanded for the contest, with running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) ruled out and receiver Chris Olave (back) questionable to play. Through four games with Tyler Shough under center, Johnson has recorded an 18-202-2 stat line. Even if Olave suits up, Johnson will operate as a TE1 in what should be a pass-heavy offense against a Buccaneers team allowing 247.5 passing yards per game.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. Kincaid returns from a three-game absence and will reclaim his role atop the depth chart. He has a fantastic opportunity to produce this week against a Bengals team that has been historically poor when defending opposing tight ends. In fact, the Bengals have allowed the most catches, receiving yards, touchdowns, and fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. Assuming Kincaid is healthy enough to handle a full or near-full workload, he'll be a mid-range TE1 with high-end upside. He's not a lock to play a full dose of snaps, but even if he's limited, this matchup is too favorable not to take advantage of. Kincaid should be started in all fantasy leagues.
