Stats

One-Liner

Kincaid is a prolific pass catcher with great hands who can win all over the field with his athleticism and play speed and can create valuable yardage after the catch, but he must further develop his play strength and fine-tune his route tree, projecting as a passing game playmaker from Day 1 who could ascend into a great every-down tight end.

Strengths

Great athlete with good long speed, quickness and burst…Can get vertical in a hurry…Is a threat as a runner after the catch, with acceleration, impressive power, contact balance to break tackles, and gain valuable YAC…Athletic enough ability to sink when breaking on routes…Natural hands to catch everything thrown his way…Leaping ability, excelling at adjusting to the ball while it is in the air, putting himself in position to make the catch…Uses his strength in contested situations to box out defenders to make a play on the ball…Versatility, can play in-line, Y-off and WR alignments effectively…Very willing blocker, will compete to maintain his blocks.

Weaknesses

Lighter build…Competes in the run game, but doesn’t have the most strength or keep his feet moving at the point of attack…Route tree is something that can be improved.
