Dak Prescott
vs Dalton Kincaid

“One of the best pure passers in the game, Dak Prescott seems primed for another big season. He has a solid offensive line in front of him and perhaps the best WR tandem in the league in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens . If the Dallas defense is subpar again, Prescott could be thrust into a lot of shootouts in which he’s forced to match opponents score for score.”

“Dak Prescott may be one of the most underrated fantasy quarterbacks. He's always near the top of the league in passing yards and touchdowns, and he should be one of the favorites to lead both categories once again in 2026.”

“Cowboys QB Dak Prescott was slightly limited during minicamp with knee soreness. Dallas HC Brian Schottenheimer called it a non-issue and said they want to be proactive in managing Prescott's workload as he ages.”

“Thanks in part to the acquisition of wide receiver George Pickens, Prescott led the league with 404 completions, threw for 4,552 yards and tossed 30 touchdowns (against 10 interceptions). Prescott put up a 99.5 passer rating, the 10th-best mark in the league, and ranked an even better fifth in QBR (70.2).”

“At full strength, Dak Prescott leads an offense ranked among the best in the NFL.”

“Statistically, Prescott has over 4,500 yards and 30 touchdowns in each of his last two healthy seasons.”

“Dak Prescott finished as the QB6, outperforming his QB11 ADP by five spots.”

“Kincaid has always been productive per-route; it’s just been a matter of running enough routes to pay off in fantasy. Finally, in his fourth season, it seems we may have the Dalton Kincaid we’ve all been waiting for. Kincaid’s 21% target share is just behind DJ Moore at 22%, and he’s leading the team by a mile with 2.72 half-PPR points per target.”

“Josh Allen , James Cook III, and Dalton Kincaid are easy starts for Buffalo.”

“Kincaid is picking up right where he left off last season from an efficiency standpoint. He currently ranks first among all tight ends in: Yards per route run (4.89) First downs per route run (0.196) Yards per target (16.1) Yards per reception (18.8) Air yards (182) Receiving yards (225) Explosive Rating (159.2) This comes on the heels of a 2025 season where he was similarly superior in several metrics and stats. The difference this year?”

“Dalton Kincaid : 52.5 Receiving Yards – Higher I was tempted to include Dalton Kincaid among the core studs instead of Washington, but I chose to include him in this section instead. Kincaid is amid a full-blown explosion after excelling on a per-route basis last year. He has ripped off the following numbers in two games this year: 71.1% snap share 65.7% route participation rate 23.3% target share 0.30 TPRR 21.2% first-read rate 6.0 receptions per game 112.5 receiving yards per game 4.89 Y/RR Kincaid has tallied 130 and 95 receiving yards against the Texans and Lions, respectively.”

“Kincaid has been one of the most efficient tight ends in the NFL, particularly last season when he posted the highest target rate and deep target share, along with the most yards per target, yards per route run, and fantasy points per route run. Part of the issue with Kincaid has been his health, but he’s also been limited to a part-time player next to Dawson Knox . He notched a 38% snap share last season, good for 70 th among all tight ends, and was 32 nd in route participation at 51%, still managing a TE13 finish in PPG.”

“If Dalton Kincaid could get a near full-time route share, he would be a league winner and season-defining player at the tight end position. Last year, Kincaid was a monster on a per-route basis, leading to a TE13 finish in fantasy points per game. Last year, among 54 qualifying tight ends, Kincaid ranked FIRST in target per route run rate, yards per route run, separation score, route win rate, first downs per route run, and fantasy points per route run.”

“If Dalton Kincaid could get a near full-time route share, he would be a league winner and season-defining player at the tight end position.”
