Knox caught two of three targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions. Knox played 51 of the Bills' 70 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Buffalo tight end. Meanwhile, teammate Dalton Kincaid returned from a three-game absence due to a knee injury and saw four more targets than Knox despite playing 17 less snaps. The 28-year-old Knox will likely continue to see his role decrease with the more dynamic Kincaid back in the mix. The veteran is best left out of fantasy lineups going forward with a Week 16 matchup against the Patriots on tap.

Dawson Knox Latest News
Two catches in win
Knox caught two of three targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions. Knox played 51 of the Bills' 70 offensive snaps Sunday, the most of any Buffalo tight end. Meanwhile, teammate Dalton Kincaid returned from a three-game absence due to a knee injury and saw four more targets than Knox despite playing 17 less snaps. The 28-year-old Knox will likely continue to see his role decrease with the more dynamic Kincaid back in the mix. The veteran is best left out of fantasy lineups going forward with a Week 16 matchup against the Patriots on tap.
Targeted once in loss
Knox caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 44-42 loss to the Rams. Knox operated as the Bills' No. 1 tight end Sunday with teammate Dalton Kincaid (knee) sidelined for the third straight game. Despite playing 82 percent of Buffalo's offensive snaps, the veteran was targeted just once in the contest. With Kincaid possibly nearing a return, Knox is unlikely to hold much fantasy value going forward with such limited usage in the passing game. The Bills will visit the Lions in Week 15.
Posts team-high 56 receiving yards
Knox caught both of his targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 35-10 win over the 49ers. Knox was the only Bills player to exceed 30 receiving yards as Buffalo relied primarily on the run in this snowy victory. Dalton Kincaid (knee) hasn't suited up since Week 10, and Knox has racked up 94 receiving yards in the two games Kincaid has missed, sandwiched around Buffalo's Week 12 bye. If Kincaid remains unavailable in Week 14 against the Rams, Knox would be in line for elevated usage in the passing game again.
Remains team's TE1 with Kincaid out
Knox is in line to maintain a larger role Sunday against the 49ers, as Dalton Kincaid (knee) has been ruled out. Knox ascended to the top of the tight end depth chart in Kincaid's absence against the Chiefs in Week 11 and proceeded to turn six targets into four catches for 40 yards. Buffalo's Week 12 bye didn't provide Kincaid sufficient time to recover, so Knox should maintain a sizable role against a 49ers defense that has limited tight ends to 384 receiving yards this season -- second-fewest in the NFL.
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. 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.
Likely to see increased reps
With Dalton Kincaid (knee) ruled out for Week 11 against the Chiefs, Knox is expected to take on an elevated role Sunday. With Kincaid dealing with the injury last Sunday against the Colts, Knox played a season-high 70 percent of the offensive snaps and matched his season bests in targets (three) and catches en route to a 2-40-0 receiving line. Knox doesn't have much upside in terms of catches and yards, but he's a trusted red-zone weapon for Josh Allen and is worthy of consideration at tight end for needy fantasy players.
Records chunk gain in Sunday's win
Knox brought in two of three targets for 40 yards in the Bills' 30-20 win over the Colts on Sunday. Fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid suffered a knee injury of unknown severity in the second half of Sunday's game, so Knox could be set for a bigger role in the short term. Sunday, he contributed a season-long 34-yard grab on his way to his second-highest yardage total of the season. Knox could play a key role in the air attack in a Week 11 home showdown against the Chiefs if Kincaid is sidelined for the contest.
Records one reception in Week 9
Knox finished Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins with one catch on two targets for five yards. Knox had his best game of the season in Week 8 against Seattle with two catches for 50 yards, but he couldn't follow that with meaningful production against Miami. The veteran tight end has recorded one or zero catches in eight of his nine contests on the campaign, making him an afterthought in most fantasy leagues. It would likely take Dalton Kincaid missing time for Knox to reemerge on the fantasy landscape this season.
Two catches in win
Knox caught both of his targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Seahawks. Knox's two receptions and 50 yards in Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks were both season highs for the veteran. The 27-year-old tight end finished the game tied with Dalton Kincaid in offensive snaps (41), but the latter had the more productive fantasy day, catching four of seven targets for 31 yards and a touchdown. With Kincaid continuing to see the majority of targets at tight end, Knox is best ignored for fantasy purposes. The Bills are set to host the Dolphins in Week 9.
