T.J. Hockenson News
Thursday, March 26, 5:50 PM
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson continues to trend in the wrong direction for dynasty fantasy football managers. Hockenson is coming off some of the worst seasons of his career. He was the TE26 and TE34 in the last two years, and he was limited to a modest 51 catches for 438 yards and two touchdowns in 2025. The good news for Hockenson is that he remains the No. 1 tight end in Minnesota after the team didn't bring in any significant competition during free agency. He could also get a slight quarterback upgrade, given that he'll be catching passes from the better half of J.J. McCarthy or Kyler Murray. With that said, a quarterback change can only do so much. Hockenson needs to get healthy and productive, two things he hasn't done since 2023. There's a little bit of buy-low appeal here in hopes that the veteran can bounce back as a top-18 fantasy tight end, but it's hard to envision a path to him ranking as a TE1 next year. He's more of a TE3 with TE2 upside.

Dalton Kincaid News
Tuesday, March 31, 8:34 PM
Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady acknowledged that "load management remains a possibility for frequently injured tight end Dalton Kincaid in 2026," according to Tim Graham of The Athletic. General manager Brandon Beane had previously floated the idea of load management for Kincaid, and now, Brady is echoing that idea. The former first-round pick has missed nine games over the last two seasons, including five in 2025. Even in some of the games where he has been on the field, he was at less than 100 percent. Brady acknowledged that Kincaid had a snap count in some games last year, limiting him to passing downs, which made the offense more predictable. He hasn't finished higher than TE20 since his rookie campaign in 2023, but if the Bills can find a way to keep him healthy for the whole year, he might actually be able to sneak into the top 12.
