Best of the Week

Mike Clay: Dalton Kincaid is an enigma. The 2023 first-round pick is handling a generous 21% target share (seventh highest at his position) in a Buffalo offense averaging 3.7 touchdowns per game (second most). On the other hand, he has found the end zone only twice and has yet to clear either 53 yards or 13.1 fantasy points in any game. Kincaid's role is enough to keep him in the back-end TE1 mix, but the ongoing lack of production makes him a risky start.

Carolina Panthers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -8
Locks: Sunday 1 p.m.

Over/under total: 48.5 (third highest)
FPI favorite: Buccaneers by 12.8, 80.1% to win outright
