Dalton Mosser Kincaid (born October 18, 1999) is an American professional football tight end for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the San Diego Toreros and Utah Utes and was selected by the Bills in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft.

Early life

[edit]

Kincaid was born in Henderson, Nevada and is a dual citizen of the United States and Canada.[1] He attended Faith Lutheran High School in Summerlin, Nevada. Growing up, Kincaid mostly played basketball, winning an AAU Championship in his senior year.[2] He would play only one season of high school football, after his friends convinced him to join the team. That season, he would earn all state honors totaling 745 yards and eight touchdowns. He would decide to become a walk-on and play college football at the University of San Diego.[3]

College career

[edit]

As a freshman in 2018, Kincaid recorded 374 yards and 11 touchdowns on 24 catches.[4] The following season, Kincaid had 44 receptions for 835 yards and eight touchdowns while leading all FCS tight ends in yards per catch.[5][6] As a result of his performance, he was named an AP FCS All-American[7] and was a part of the Second-team All-Pioneer Football League.[8] Kincaid decided to transfer to Utah in 2020.[9] Kincaid's first season at Utah was shortened by the COVID-19 pandemic, in which he played in five games. In 2021, he tallied eight touchdowns, 510 yards receiving, and 36 receptions.[10] In 2022, he played in 12 games with 70 receptions, 890 receiving yards and 8 TDs.
