The Buffalo Bills are flying high at 4-0 to begin the season, with Joe Brady's offense, so far, being one of the best in football, averaging a cool 33.3 points per game (ranks second).
With Josh Allen taking a backseat at times with James Cook and the run game being in top form, when No. 17 does drop back to pass, it has been Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, and one player who has started the season like a house on fire - tight end Dalton Kincaid, who have been the chief destroyers.
After a down second year in 2024, Dalton has begun the 2025 season shot out of a cannon, and through four games, has already surpassed his career-best touchdown total for a season, hauling in three.
Plus, already with 179 yards from 14 receptions, which he took until Week 7 of last season to surpass, yeah, Dalton is cooking.
“He's playing confidently,” Brady said of Kincaid. “You feel that out there. I think you see that both in the pass game and in the run game. He's playing confident, and when he's at his best, like he is right now, good things happen, and he's a matchup issue for teams. As long as we can get him continuing to play like he is, good things are going to happen.”

Bills' Kincaid on pace for career-best season
Kincaid's rookie season saw him post 673 yards and two touchdowns, and after a month in 2025, he's already surpassed his touchdown total, and if his current form holds, he is set to end Year 3 with 761 yards, easily a career best.
When we add Kincaid to a list of weapons for Josh Allen, you get the sense of why the offense has been able to score 30+ points in every game this season. Many thought 2024 was going to be Kincaid's year, where he pushed himself into the top tier of tight ends in football, but things didn't work out that way.
Now, he's off to a good start, which must be maintained, and if he does, maybe 2025 will be the year where he announces himself as one of the better tight ends in football.
