Dalton Kincaid vs Mark Andrews: Who Should You Start?

Dalton Kincaid and Mark Andrews are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Dalton Kincaid averaged 8.9 PPG across 12 games with the Buffalo Bills, while Mark Andrews posted 6.3 PPG in 17 appearances for the Baltimore Ravens.

A 2.6-PPG gap gives Dalton Kincaid the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Dalton Kincaid had 39 catches for 571 yards; Mark Andrews posted 48 for 422. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

Dalton Kincaid has his bye in Week 12, and Mark Andrews rests in Week 14. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.

The Bottom Line

Dalton Kincaid outscored Mark Andrews by 2.6 PPG in 2025 (8.9 to 6.3). That production gap is the baseline, but weekly context shifts the answer. DraftCall analyzes matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and health data to deliver a clear start or sit recommendation backed by real reasoning.
