Dalton Kincaid

One player who Josh Allen is familiar with is former first-round pick Dalton Kincaid, who could emerge as the top target in this offense. Last year, Kincaid made an impact with 73 receptions, 673 receiving yards and two touchdowns and surpassing Dawson Knox as the team's top tight end.

The Bills are going to need even more from Kincaid in his second season and it appears he is off to a great start. Matt Parrino with Syracuse.com wrote about Kincaid's practice this week:

"Kincaid made a pair of big catches on the day - one from Allen and another from Trubisky. Kincaid gets open easily and regularly and always seems like an option for the quarterback. The pass from Allen was a dart about 12 yards down the field and Kincaid made the grab in traffic but still had room to run."

Coming out of college, Dalton Kincaid was expected to be a matchup nightmare as he has the size of a tight end but moves like a wide receiver. He is too big for defensive backs but too quick for linebackers in coverage.

At this point, Kincaid is not on the same level as Chiefs' Travis Kelce but he could play a similar role in this offense as the top target. The start of OTAs could be a sign of big things to come for Dalton Kincaid in 2024.
