It took some time for Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid to become a consistent force in the Bills' offense. However, once he did, he didn't look back. 

The now second-year tight end hauled in 73 passes for 673 yards and two scores in the regular season, and added another touchdown in Buffalo's wildcard win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Kincaid's performance as a rookie earned him a top 15 placement in PFF's tight end rankings ahead of the 2024 season, ranking 13th.

"Kincaid made teammate Dawson Knox an afterthought, as he racked up 777 yards and averaged 1.51 yards per route run on 101 targets," PFF analyst John Kosko wrote. "Kincaid had a great rookie season that was somewhat overlooked because of LaPorta's phenomenal campaign."

Expect Kincaid's numbers and usage to get a big increase in 2024, as the Bills have undergone a makeover offensively. Kincaid and Khalil Shakir are the two pass catchers with the most production from a season ago that are still with the team.
