Dalton Kincaid or Isaiah Likely?

Dalton Kincaid or Isaiah Likely? Both are TEs. Their 2026 through Week 9 figures are below, as of Nov 12, 2026; here is what each man's 2025 season was built on.

Dalton Kincaid's edge sits in receiving yards per pass snap — efficiency rather than opportunity, and the file measures that as the less repeatable half.

Isaiah Likely leads on share of his team's offensive snaps — the inputs that have historically carried from one season to the next.

Figures are verified play-by-play (nflverse); scored Half-PPR. Repeatability is measured from year-over-year persistence across 2016 to 2025, not projected. Muffed publishes no projections, draft grades or start/sit advice.

A dash means the panel holds no qualifying figure for that player — usually too few games or attempts to clear the metric's floor, not a zero. Ranks are the source's own, against the population shown, and run through the same week as the figures. Not shown, because the panel holds no 2026 through Week 9 figure for either player: Games, Snap share, Availability, Air yards share, Yds/pass snap.

“Repeats” is measured year-over-year persistence across 2016 to 2025 — opportunity carries between seasons, scoring rate largely does not. This describes what a 2025 season was built on. It is not a forecast, and Muffed publishes no projections, draft grades or start/sit advice. How we measure it.
