STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Kincaid's elite per-route efficiency and potential full-time role make him a league-winner candidate.

Kincaid was a monster on a per-route basis in 2025, finishing TE13 in fantasy points per game despite being 39th in route share (44.2%) behind Michael Mayer. Among 54 qualifying tight ends, he 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 Kincaid could get a near full-time route share in 2026, he would be a league winner and season-defining player at tight end. Josh Allen could lean on him heavily in Week 1; Houston allowed the seventh-most receiving fantasy points per game and 11th-most fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends in Weeks 12-18 last year.
