Dawson Knox

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He's missed the last two games with a hamstring injury. The knee issue is new. Kincaid's status for this weekend remains uncertain, but he should certainly be pushing for a return to face the Bengals' historically bad TE defense. That matchup will give TE Dawson Knox spot-start appeal if Kincaid remains out.

It's a good sign that Kincaid could finally return to the Buffalo offense in Week 14 against the Bengals, a defense that has been tormented by opposing tight ends all year. No defense allows more tight end receptions, targets, yards, or touchdowns than the Bengals. If Kincaid suits up for Week 14, he'll be a must play option in all formats. Kincaid in 2025 has been targeted on 27 percent of his routes, the highest rate in the league among tight ends. Dawson Knox would be an excellent streamer if Kincaid is sidelined.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is inactive for today s game vs. the Steelers. He returned to limited practices on Thursday and Friday, so he should have a chance to make it back for Week 14. TE Dawson Knox gets another start today but would be a desperation fantasy play.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. That doesn't bode well for his chances to returning for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers. Dawson Knox figures to get another game as lead TE in that one, but he's posted just 1-19-1, 1-23-0, and 3-17-0 in three games without Kincaid this season.

Kincaid could be on his way to missing yet another game while recovering from a hamstring injury. With Kincaid sidelined, Dawson Knox will function as the team's TE1. Knox has run a route on 76 percent of the Bills' drop backs over the past two weeks and have four catches on seven targets. He's viable in deeper fantasy formats if Kincaid misses Buffalo's Week 13 game against the Steelers.
