Dalton Kincaid vs Hunter Henry: Who Should You Start?

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Dalton Kincaid finished the 2025 season at 8.9 PPG over 12 games with the Buffalo Bills, while Hunter Henry clocked in at 8.8 across 17 appearances for the New England Patriots. A 0.1-point gap means any given week could go either way.

With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.

Hunter Henry is the volume tight end in this matchup with 60 receptions for 768 yards, while Dalton Kincaid profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (5 scores on 39 catches). In weeks where Dalton Kincaid finds the end zone he out-scores Hunter Henry, but the floor gap is real.

One scheduling note: Dalton Kincaid is off Week 12 and Hunter Henry Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in tight end for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
