Who Should I Start? T.J. Hockenson or Dalton Kincaid

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson brought in all five of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The 27-year-old was able to break free for a nifty 26-yard catch-and-run late in the third quarter, but that would be the team's only TD -- and highlight -- of the game. The Vikings' offense fizzled out for the second straight week as quarterback Sam Darnold's late-season collapse continued. It's an unfortunate ending to the season for Minnesota, who won 14 games and was on the brink of a first-round bye. Still, Hockenson can find a silver lining in that he did not re-injure the knee that kept him out of the season's first seven games. He'll now turn to 2025 with uncertainty at quarterback.

The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia writes that Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has a bit of a buy-low, post-hype sleeper feel about him as he enters the 2025 season. Kincaid is fully healthy this offseason and is likely to take the team's advice to get stronger. The 25-year-old former 25th overall pick in 2023 out of Utah had lofty expectations going into last year after catching 73 passes for 673 yards and two touchdowns in his rookie campaign. He failed to meet those expectations last year, catching 44 passes for 448 yards and two TDs in 13 regular-season games. In addition to Kincaid, Buffalo is hoping receivers Keon Coleman and Curtis Samuel can build on their success from a year ago. The Bills spread things out as an offense in 2024, but Kincaid's knee injury didn't help his cause. Target him a a low-end TE1 in fantasy with upside for more in his third season.
