The Bills stayed perfect Thursday night, and Dalton Kincaid Joshua Palmer found the end zone and more in their second week of impactful contributions in a Buffalo victory.
Kincaid led Buffalo in receiving, going 7-of-8 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the Bills’ Week 2 win over the Lions.
The receiving tight end has been a difference maker, and lauded his head coach and quarterback with credit.
“I think it’s it’s just Joe dialing everything up, you know, were interchangeable pieces putting people out there so just stay on the same page with Josh makes a big difference,” he said to the media postgame
"[Josh Allen] is the best player in football," he also added on ESPN SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt. "And when he's on … it's dangerous out
there."
Allen finished 20-of-31 for 248 yards and three touchdowns through the air, and he added two more scores on the ground. The QB ran a couple TDs in, threw one to a wide open Josh Palmer, and found Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid for a touchdown pass each as well.
Kincaid and Palmer had big contributions in their first action of the regular season on Sunday of last weekend against the Houston Texans as well, when the tight end had a career-high 5 receptions on 6 targets for 130 yards and Palmer caught a 34-yard game-winner between two defenders on an unplanned cross route in a 36-31 victory.
This week, the receiver broke free downfield early and hauled in a wide open deep ball to get the score and helped the team improve to 2-0 Thursday night.
"I’ve seen Dalton since last year, he approaches every every day like a pro, whether that's getting his body healthy, whether that's doing extra after practice, I see Dalton every day doing this stuff," Palmer said to NBC News 10 after the game. "Maybe it’s the Canadian in us!”
The Canadian Palmer notably hails from just North of Buffalo in Brampton, Ontario while Kincaid, who was born in Nevada, is a Canadian dual citizen by way of his mother, Vicki, who was born in Sarnia, Ontario.
Two games in, Kincaid is on pace for a career year with the numbers he's putting up, and Palmer is on track to justify the three year free agent pact he was handed last offseason.
Buffalo stays home Sunday, Sept. 27, when Palmer's former team, the Los Angeles Chargers visit Highmark Stadium.
