Patriots Draft Rumors: Top Tight End Visiting New England

This year’s crop of tight end prospects is viewed as the deepest in recent memory, and one of its headliners is set to meet with the Patriots this week.

Utah’s Dalton Kincaid has a top-30 visit with New England scheduled for Thursday, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Arguably the best pure receiving tight end in the 2023 NFL Draft, Kincaid garnered comparisons to Travis Kelce and Zach Ertz after catching 70 passes for 890 yards and eight touchdowns last season. He’s a projected first-round pick and could be the first tight end selected, with Notre Dame’s Michael Mayer also in the running for that distinction.
