Who Should I Start? Pat Freiermuth or Dalton Kincaid

Although Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth's fantasy value has been almost entirely touchdown-dependent this season, he could see more opportunities than usual on Monday night against the Miami Dolphins. Miami's defense has been strong in recent weeks, but it has still struggled to contain opposing tight ends. On the season, the Dolphins have surrendered the third-most fantasy points per contest to the position. Furthermore, fellow tight end Darnell Washington (concussion) has not yet cleared the league's concussion protocol and should be considered questionable to suit up. While Freiermuth's role has been inconsistent at best, he has been more efficient with his touches than Jonnu Smith. He shouldn't be considered a reliable option in most redraft formats, but Freiermuth could be a sneaky play in deeper fantasy leagues this week.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has topped a 50% snap share only three times this season, and only once since Week 4, and yet he continues to be one of this season's most reliable tight end options. Even while missing four games over the course of the year, his five touchdown catches tie him for 6th at the position, as he has clearly become one of Josh Allen's most trusted redzone targets. In Week 15, the Bills face a Patriots defense that has allowed almost a full point above expectation to the tight end position and saw Kincaid gather all six of his targets for 108 yards when these teams last met in Week 5. Kincaid is RotoBaller's TE6 for the first round of the fantasy playoffs, and should be the Bills' most valuable pass catcher even if his snap count leaves something to be desired.
