Kincaid (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Kincaid, who was inactive for the Bills' Week 17 loss to the Eagles, was limited at practice this week before being listed as questionable for the contest. Though Kincaid is in uniform versus the Jets, it remains to be seen how may snaps he'll see in the Bills' regular-season finale, with the team potentially managing the workload of some of its key players ahead of the postseason.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Kincaid (knee) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jets, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Per Glab, Kincaid, who was inactive Week 17, will log his third straight limited practice Friday. With that in mind, the tight end is no lock to be active for Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET contest. Even if Kincaid is in uniform versus the Jets, the Bills could elect to limit his snaps with an eye toward keeping him healthy/available for the team's postseason run.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Another limited practice
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) remained limited at practice Thursday.
As did fellow TE Dawson Knox (knee), which gives the duo one more chance apiece to work fully before the Bills assign injury designations ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jets. Kincaid was inactive Week 17, and given that he's still limited by his knee issue, it's plausible that the Bills elect to err on the side of caution with him this weekend, will the NFL postseason looming.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: To be limited in walk-through
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) will be listed as limited in Wednesday's walk-through, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
The same goes for fellow TE Dawson Knox (knee). Kincaid was inactive for the Bills' 13-12 loss to the Eagles in Week 17, and at this stage it's plausible that the team could elect to err on the side of caution with their top tight end in Week 18, with Kincaid still managing his knee issue ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Jets. Per Alec White of the team's official site, the Bills are currently the No. 7 playoff seed in the AFC and are still in play to be the No. 5 or No. 6 seed depending on how things transpire this weekend.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Inactive Sunday
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Kincaid was listed as a non-participant at practice Wednesday and Thursday before being deemed limited Friday and questionable to face Philadelphia. Now that he's been made inactive, Dawson Knox will have an opportunity to lead the Bills' Week 17 TE corps, with Jackson Hawes and Keleki Latu also in the mix. Kincaid will thus target a return to action in Week 18 versus the Jets.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Estimated as 'DNP' Thursday
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate.
Kincaid also was listed as a 'DNP' in Wednesday's walkthrough, which goes for fellow TE Dawson Knox (knee). Friday's final injury report thus will be telling with regard to the duo's chances of playing Sunday against the Eagles, but it's worth noting that last week Kincaid was also deemed a non-participant Wednesday and Thursday before working fully Friday and heading into Week 16 action minus an injury designation.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: DNP in Wednesday walk-through
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice.
The same applies to fellow TE Dawson Knox (knee), though it's possible that both of their DNPs were maintenance-related. Kincaid -- who has been managing a knee issue -- was also deemed a non-participant both last Wednesday and Thursday before working fully Friday and approaching Week 16 action without an injury designation. A repeat of that pattern is plausible ahead of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Clear for Sunday
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game at Cleveland.
After opening Week 16 prep with no on-field work Wednesday and Thursday due to a knee injury, Kincaid was able to practice without limitations Friday, setting him up to be available to the Bills offense this weekend. In his 10 appearances this season, he's hauled in 36 of 45 targets for 523 yards and five touchdowns, making him a reliable TE option for fantasy purposes when he's available.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Set to practice Friday
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) is slated to practice Friday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Kincaid didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but coach Sean McDermott noted Friday that the tight end didn't experience a setback with his knee. Instead, it's an issue the team is managing ahead of Week 16 action. The Bills' upcoming injury report will reveal Kincaid's game status for Sunday's game against the Browns, but Getzenberg suggests that he's trending toward being available this weekend.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Remains sidelined Thursday
Rotowire
Kincaid (knee) isn't practicing Thursday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Kincaid was also deemed a non-participant for Wednesday's walk-through practice, so what he's able to do Friday will loom large in determining his status for Sunday's game against the Browns. If Kincaid isn't available this weekend, Dawson Knox would likely be in line for elevated snaps as the Bills' clear top tight end.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: TEs to start
Rotowire
Kincaid returned from a three-game absence due to knee and hamstring injuries in Week 14 against Cincinnati and made an immediate impact with four catches for 41 yards and a touchdown on five targets. He has now scored at least 14.1 PPR points in five of nine healthy games this season, including Week 5 against the Patriots when he had six catches for 108 yards on six targets. New England is No. 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends, and seven guys have scored at least 11.3 PPR points against this defense. I like Kincaid as a top-10 Fantasy tight end in all leagues.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Not on Week 15 injury report
Rotowire
Kincaid isn't listed on the Bills' injury report Wednesday, Alex Brasky of SB Nation reports.
After missing three games with a hamstring injury, Kincaid caught four of five targets for 41 yards and a TD in Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals. His role was about the same as pre-injury, with modest snap/route shares but standout efficiency numbers on a per-route and per-snap basis.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Catches TD in return
Rotowire
Kincaid caught four of five targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals.
After missing the prior three games with hamstring and knee issues, Kincaid made an immediate impact in his return to action, hauling in a five-yard TD in the third quarter. Josh Allen leaned heavily on all his tight ends given the cold, snowy conditions -- Dawson Knox led the Bills with six catches and 93 receiving yards, while No. 3 TE Jackson Hawes also caught a touchdown. A healthy Kincaid might be Allen's favorite target, however, and through nine games this season he's established a new career high with five TDs, along with 33 catches on 41 targets for 489 yards. He'll look to build on this performance in Week 15 against the Patriots.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Sleeper TEs
Rotowire
Kincaid has missed the past three games with a hamstring injury, but he was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday and will hopefully be cleared for Sunday. If healthy, Kincaid is worth using as a low-end starter in all leagues given the matchup with the Bengals. Cincinnati is No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends, and 11 guys have scored at least 10.7 PPR points against the Bengals this year. Kincaid scored at least 14.8 PPR points in four of his first seven games, and we would love for him to be active in this matchup.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: To be questionable for Week 14
Rotowire
Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Kincaid (hamstring/knee) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Kincaid last suited up Week 10 at Miami, as a hamstring injury has sidelined him the last three games. A knee injury was added to the practice report this week, and he even was seen sporting a knee brace on his left leg at Thursday's session, per Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard. McDermott also noted Friday that he wants to see Kincaid be "functional" in the Bills' final Week 14 practice in order to clear him to return, so his activity level Friday likely will be key in that regard.

Kincaid (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
After being deemed a 'DNP' on Wednesday, Kincaid, who last saw game action in Week 10, practiced in a limited fashion both Thursday and Friday before being listed as questionable to face Pittsburgh. In his continued absence, Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes will handle the Bills' Week 13 tight-end duties, a context that resulted in Knox catching three of his four targets for 17 yards and Hawes hauling in both of his targets in the team's 23-19 loss to the Texans on Nov. 20.

Kincaid thus will target a potential return to action this coming Thursday, when the Bills face the Texans on the road.
