Dalton Kincaid, TE, Buffalo Bills
Kincaid (hamstring) will miss out on the Bills’ Week 11 tilt against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a huge loss for Josh Allen and the Buffalo offense.
The third-year tight end leads the Bills in receiving yards per game (56) and receiving touchdowns (four).
In his absence, expect head coach Sean McDermott to lean even more on his team’s league-topping rushing attack featuring Allen and standout running back James Cook.

Kincaid’s injury also increases the fantasy value of wide receivers Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman, although only the former should be considered for your fantasy starting lineup this weekend.
JK Dobbins, RB, Denver Broncos
The Broncos will be without starting running back JK Dobbins (foot) in a massive AFC West divisional matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Dobbins, who ranks fifth in the NFL in rushing yards (772) entering Week 11, will be replaced by rookie running back RJ Harvey in Denver’s backfield.

Harvey has impressed in short spurts this season and will finally see consistent RB1 touches for the first time this year.
The rookie can be classed as a must start in fantasy as long as Dobbins is sidelined. Look for quarterback Bo Nix, who has been inconsistent passing the ball this season, to get more involved in the rushing attack as well.
Davante Adams, WR, Los Angeles Rams
It was feared that Adams (oblique) would miss out against the Seahawks, but the veteran wide out will be healthy enough to play in this vital divisional clash between two 7-2 teams.

Despite his ailments, Adams, who leads the NFL with nine receiving touchdowns, should be started in fantasy.

Fellow wide receiver Puka Nacua, MVP candidate quarterback Matthew Stafford, and running back Kyren Williams should be, too. It’s smart to take full advantage of the Rams’ offense while it’s humming like this.
Seattle’s defense has performed exceptionally well this season but will face its toughest test of the year going up against Sean McVay’s offense. It’s not the best week to start the Seahawks D/ST if you own them in fantasy.
