The Buffalo Bills’ offense lacks any kind of huge star player except Josh Allen. They have good players like James Cook and Dion Dawkins, who have both become more respected in their roles. Then they have players who might not be as well-known outside of Buffalo in the league. Dalton Kincaid might be another offensive sensation for the Bills in 2024.

Drafted by the Bills in the first round of 2023, Kincaid emerged as a fan favorite and Allen’s preferred target in the latter part of the season. Now that he has the opportunity to develop further as a player, the second-year tight end can take the lead over Dawson Knox as the best tight end in the league.

A list of 2021–2023 first round draft selections that could break out in coming season was compiled by CBS Sports’ Chris Trapasso. In Trapasso’s essay, Kincaid was the first person listed.

“The 152 targets that Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis saw throughout the regular season last year must now be replaced by the Bills. Additionally, Buffalo’s new, more varied passing attack is expected to center around the silky-smooth Kincaid. Kincaid forced 10 missed tackles on his 81 total catches, including the postseason, and won on 55.6% of his contested-catch opportunities, which tied him for second place only behind LaPorta. He’ll enter that quasi-elite tier in 2023, immediately behind George Kittle, Mark Andrews, and Travis Kelce, and he’ll be vying for a spot in the elite group by 2025.”

In 2024, Kincaid will rise to fame.

When it comes to the passing assault, wide receivers like Josh Allen, Curtis Samuel, and Khalil Shakir are often the center of attention; nevertheless, Kincaid has the chance to develop into a weapon akin to Travis Kelce. As the season progressed, he was more involved in the game plan and should establish himself as Allen’s go-to player right away this year.

At the end of the previous season, Kincaid had 91 targets, 73 receptions, 673 yards, and two touchdowns. Fans of the Bills can anticipate that he will get twice as many yards and, ideally, touchdowns.

Bills Co-Owner Kim Pegula Assists in Team Huddle: A Heartwarming Sign of Her Recovery.

AP — PITTSFORD, N.Y. Co-owner of the Buffalo Bills Kim Pegula, who was escorted to the field by her husband to assist in breaking up the team huddle after practice on Friday, showed encouraging signs in her recuperation from a crippling cardiac attack.

This was the first time Pegula had been seen in public walking alone since suffering a heart arrest in June 2022, not long after turning 53 years old, even though her gait was a little unsteady.

Pegula watched practice from the passenger seat of the family’s SUV, which was positioned on the track next to one of the end zones, throughout the first two days of camp. It was comparable to the camp the previous year, when Pegula made her first appearance since getting sick and observed drills from the car.

Terry Pegula assisted his wife in exiting the SUV by going to the passenger side just as practice was coming to a conclusion on Friday. The team had gathered close to the goal line, and he took her hand to lead her there.

The Bills have shared a video of their players surrounding the Pegulas. Josh Allen, the quarterback, is heard saying, “I appreciate you guys for coming out.” We appreciate you everyone, adore you, and say “thank you.”

When Allen announced, “Bills on three,” he broke up the huddle. Kim Pegula then lifted her left arm and clasped hands with left tackle Dion Dawkins without saying anything. Bills, one, two, three.

Sean McDermott, the coach, became emotional as he described the incident.

“Oh, dude. How would you describe that? My two thoughts are, I believe, grateful and perspective. And we could discuss the meanings of those two terms all day long here,” McDermott added. “Very appreciative of Terry and Kim. I’m glad she’s figuring this out. Regarding perspective, consider how valuable each day is.

Dawkins said he was pleased of Pegula and found it astounding how far she had come. The Mama Bear is still there. We are also glad that she is still with us.

Regaining her motor abilities and addressing what the family described as serious language and memory problems have taken a long time for Pegula.

Before becoming ill, Kim Pegula was the president of the Buffalo Sabres and the Bills, two of the couple’s owned teams.

She oversaw marketing efforts, assisted in the design of the Bills’ new stadium, which is now under development and scheduled to open in 2026, and was always available to help with player-related matters to ensure that newcomers were welcomed to Buffalo. Pegula served on a number of NFL committees as well.

Before the incident, she put in a great deal of effort and energy. Thus, supporting her is the least we can do, quarterback Josh Allen remarked. “We’re just glad to see her out here, because I know a lot of the new guys don’t realize the impact she had on a lot of guys here, including myself.”

The Pegulas are anticipated to go to Paris in the next few days to watch their daughter Jessica Pegula compete for the United States in tennis at the Olympics, now that camp has begun.

Although her husband took over her position as president of the Bills and Sabres as part of a significant reorganization of the Pegula family’s holdings last summer, Kim Pegula is still recognized as the team’s co-owner.

Pegulas grew up in the neighboring town of Fairport, thus her appearance at the camp in the suburban Rochester, New York, felt like a homecoming.

Pegula was abandoned as a young kid in South Korea and transported to the United States where she was adopted by Ralph and Marilyn Kerr at the age of five.

She is Terry Pegula’s second wife; the couple were wed in 1993 after meeting in a village south of Buffalo. After making their money in the natural gas sector, the Pegula family bought the Sabres in 2011 and the Bills three years later after Ralph Wilson, the team’s founder, passed away. The Pegulas are from western New York.
