The Buffalo Bills will face the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding TE Dalton Kincaid.
Is Dalton Kincaid Playing in Week 7?
Dalton Kincaid was limited at practice on Wednesday and Thursday due to a collarbone injury. Fortunately, he fully practiced on Friday and doesn’t have an injury designation for Week 7.
Kincaid’s underlying metrics remain strong, but the Bills just aren’t throwing as much as they used to. Tight end production around the league has been so weak that Kincaid has still been a TE1 in three of his past four games. No team has allowed fewer fantasy points (3.8 per game) to tight ends than Tennessee this year.
We’ll continue to monitor the Bills’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Dalton Kincaid in Week 7?
I’m still not sure the Bills know how to best utilize Kincaid. But their willingness to explore different options is strong for his long-term outlook, though it has come with some ups and downs.
- Week 2 at Dolphins: -2.0-yard aDOT
- Week 3 vs. Jaguars: 12.2-yard aDOT
- Week 4 at Ravens: 6.7-yard aDOT
- Week 5 at Texans: 16.8-yard aDOT
- Week 6 at Jets: 3.4-yard aDOT
His ability to intrigue them at all three levels, I believe, will allow him to eventually unlock some pretty special upside. We just aren’t there yet.
But maybe we will be in Week 7?
The Titans create pressure at the second-lowest rate in the NFL, and Kincaid has vacuumed in at least a quarter of Josh Allen’s targets when not pressured in four straight games. You’re playing him if you roster him weekly, and I think you get rewarded for that loyalty with maybe his best week of the season to date.
