Most camp health updates focus on injuries that a player is dealing with or returning from. For Bills TE Dalton Kincaid, though, it's worth noting that he has yet to miss a workout. That's because Kincaid spent portions of each of the past two years managing a PCL tear. Last year proved especially rough as Kincaid played just 37.6% of Buffalo's offensive snaps across his 12 games and ranked just 48th among TEs in total routes run. Kincaid still elected to pass on surgery for the PCL this offseason.

Bills GM Brandon Beane said a key offseason priority is finding a way to keep TE Dalton Kincaid healthy. Kincaid has dealt with multiple knee injuries, plus hamstring and oblique issues, over the past two seasons. "Our number one thing with Dalton is to see if we can get him in a healthier fashion this year, so that we don't have to A: miss games, and then B: limit how much he's playing," Beane said.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid "has a torn PCL he was playing through," according to teammate Dawson Knox. Buffalo's other starting TE revealed that on the podcast of former Bills C Mitch Morse. Just how long he played through it is less clear, but there's a chance this injury affects his start to 2026.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) is not listed on the final Week 16 injury report. He sat out on Wednesday and Thursday but returned to a full workout on Friday. It suggests that Kincaid will be ready for his usual role vs. the Browns this weekend. He’s a risk/reward TE1 in what figures to be a low-volume day for Buffalo’s passing game.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. It's officially time to worry about his availability for this weekend's game vs. the Browns. We'll see if Kincaid practices tomorrow and then how he's listed on the final injury report. His absence would turn TE Dawson Knox into a low-level fantasy option.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. He picked up a knee issue as he was rehabbing his hamstring injury back in November, although it's unclear if this is related. We'll see if Kincaid is able to get back on the field tomorrow, ahead of Sunday's game vs. the Browns.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid returned from a hamstring injury to post 4 catches, 41 yards, and 1 TD against the Bengals. But it was Dawson Knox who led the team in targets (7), catches (6) and yards (93). Third-string TE Jackson Hawes even added a goal line TD on his lone target.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Bengals. He’s been out since Week 10 with the hamstring and picked up a knee injury during rehab, HC Sean McDermott said this week. ESPN’s Adam Schefter said this morning that Kincaid would “try to play” today, which gives us the heebie-jeebies. Kincaid’s upside is tempting against Cincinnati’s league-worst TE defense, but he’d be a risky fantasy start. Check your Team Dashboard to see if he belongs in your starting lineup.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) "plans to try to play" vs. the Bengals today, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That doesn't inspire much confidence in Kincaid as a Week 14 fantasy start. He's been out since Week 10 with a hamstring injury and picked up a knee issue as he was rehabbing the hamstring, HC Sean McDermott said this week. The matchup with Cincinnati' league-worst TE defense boosts Kincaid's upside today, but he comes with a scary-low floor.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals. He was limited in practice all week, and his status seems truly up in the air for this one. The matchup against Cincinnati's historically bad TE defense would put Kincaid squarely in the TE1 mix if he suits up, albeit with some risk coming off the hamstring injury. If Kincaid sits again, TE Dawson Knox would be a viable fantasy start.

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.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) got in a limited practice on Thursday. It was his first practice of any kind since going down in Week 10. We'll see what Kincaid does on Friday and how he's listed on the final injury report, but we still wouldn't be counting on him returning for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He’s considered “week to week” with his hamstring injury, so we’re tentatively expecting Kincaid to miss multiple games. His absence should mean a big boost in playing time for TE Dawson Knox, making him a low-level spot-start option.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid is considered "week to week" with the right hamstring injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, according to insider Jordan Schultz. Expect Kincaid to miss at least this Sunday's game vs. the Buccaneers, and he could miss more time beyond that. Kincaid's absence turns TE Dawson Knox into a low-level spot start option in fantasy lineups. He caught just one of two targets for 19 yards when Kincaid missed Week 6. But that catch went for a TD, and Knox ran a route on 77% of pass plays.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (oblique) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He was limited in all three practices back in Week 6 before missing the Falcons game. We still don't have any details on the injury, and Kincaid's availability for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers is uncertain. We'll keep you updated on his status.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid revealed that he dealt with an "uncommon" right knee injury last season called a Morel-Lavallee Lesion. Kincaid described the injury as “a form of bursitis where basically the skin underneath the knee is filling up with fluid." The injury is believed to have occurred in Week 16, according to Banged-Up Bills' Dr. Kyle Trimble, who adds that "it should heal just fine."

Bills GM Brandon Beane and HC Sean McDermott mentioned "play strength" as an area they'd like to see TE Dalton Kincaid improve in this offseason. "Dalton Kincaid didn’t have the year that he expected or we expected. He’s gonna have to continue to work on his play strength," Beane said. "He got nicked up and I think that set him back." Beane is referring to the Week 10 PCL injury that cost Kincaid three games. He averaged just 2.7 catches, 27.2 yards, and 0 TDs over his final six games (including playoffs). Kincaid averaged 3.6 catches, 36.9 yards, and 0.2 TDs over his first nine healthy games.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid played through a torn PCL in Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs. The news comes via teammate Dawson Knox, who adds that Kincaid “aggravated” his other knee. “It’s insane what he’s played through,” Knox concluded. Kincaid missed three regular season games with an injury to his left knee and didn’t look right for most of 2024. He finished just 22nd in PPR points per game after slotting 13th as a rookie. A balanced offense hurts Kincaid’s chance of a 2025 rebound, but he has the talent to earn TE1 status.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid returned from a three-game knee injury for Sunday's win over the Lions. He drew 7 targets to tie WR Khalil Shakir for the team lead. Kincaid caught four of them for 53 yards. But he also trailed Dawson Knox in playing time.
