Kyle Pitts Sr. Trending Up, but Still a Risky Play in Week 6

Saturday, October 17, 8:06 AM

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. had his most productive game of the season thus far in Week 5, catching five of his six targets for 42 yards and recording his first touchdown of the season. The 6-foot-6 tight end is trending in the right direction with eight catches over the last two weeks after tallying just two receptions over the season's first three weeks. Week 6 brings a challenging matchup against the Bears, a defense that has yielded the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, aided by the fact that the unit has yet to allow an opposing TE to score a touchdown. However, Chicago will be down multiple pieces on defense this week that could have an impact on the passing game, including the absences of LB T.J. Edwards (hamstring), DE Dayo Odeyingbo (quadriceps), and DE Montez Sweat (suspended). Be that as it may, RotoBaller ranks the former first-rounder as a low-end TE2 this week, but there is certainly upside potential given his momentum and the depleted defensive unit.

Dalton Kincaid Looking to Rediscover Early-Season Production

Saturday, October 17, 7:44 AM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has been remarkably quiet since opening the season with 12 catches for 225 yards and a touchdown across his first two games. Over the following three contests, he has managed just four receptions for 52 yards on seven targets. His latest outing was particularly disappointing, with one catch for seven yards against the Rams despite Buffalo playing without several receiving options. The production has been frustrating, although Kincaid's ability to stretch the field was evident during those opening performances. His 277 receiving yards still lead the Bills through five games, even with the recent downturn. Sunday's matchup against the Raiders provides another opportunity to get him involved, but the lack of dependable targets is difficult to overlook. Kincaid remains a TE1 option, supported by his talent and RotoBaller's TE5 ranking for Week 6, though his recent usage introduces considerable risk.
