2024 Fantasy Outlook
After totaling 1,104 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns between 2021 and 2022, Knox ceded the vast majority of Buffalo’s 2023 tight end targets to rookie first-round pick Dalton Kincaid. Knox was limited to 186 receiving yards and two touchdowns across 12 appearances in 2023, though he played at least half of Buffalo’s offensive snaps in each of the first seven games before missing five weeks with a wrist injury. Kincaid stepped up in his absence, and Knox then topped a 47 percent share only once in his final seven games (including playoffs). Even with Buffalo lacking established pass catchers after losing Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis this offseason, it would likely take an injury to Kincaid for the 27-year-old Knox to regain his former prominent role. Kincaid is firmly entrenched as the team's top pass-catching tight end, coming off a 673-yard rookie season. Read Past Outlooks
Gains 40 yards sans Kincaid
Knox finished with four receptions on six targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 30-21 win over the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Knox filled in for injured starter Dalton Kincaid (knee) in a headline win over the Chiefs. The 28-year-old Knox recorded new season highs in targets (six) and receptions (four), but his 40 receiving yards did not. With the Bills entering a bye week, Knox may find himself back in a backup role when the team resumes play against San Francisco on Dec. 1.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
2020
Knox’s 2022 season was similar to his 2021 campaign, except for a noticeable drop in touchdowns from nine to six. He once again dressed for 15 games, finishing six targets, one catch and 70 yards short of his previous year’s totals. The 6-foot-4 tight end has red zone chemistry with star quarterback Josh Allen, but since Knox has yet to break 50 catches or 600 yards in any of his four NFL seasons, his fantasy value is tied primarily to his touchdown total. His 2022 red zone target total was disappointing in that regard, as Knox dropped from 19 such looks in 2021 to just 11, which is only one more red zone target than he saw as a part-time player in 2020. Another production dip seems likely in 2023 after the Bills spent their first-round pick on TE Dalton Kincaid, who had 1,400 yards and 16 TDs over his final two seasons at Utah. The rookie may not take over the starting job but probably won't need long to cut into Knox's snaps/routes/targets. Even if Kincaid mostly plays in two-TE sets, his presence could mean more blocking snaps and fewer routes run for Knox.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for expanded role Sunday
Knox is expected to fill a larger role during Sunday's game against the Chiefs since fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid has been ruled out due to a knee injury, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Kincaid suffered the knee injury during the Week 10 win over the Colts, missing all but two plays in the second half. The second-year pro's absence will thrust Knox into a larger role after he logged a season-high 48 snaps versus Indianapolis in light of Kincaid missing what amounted to half the game.
