Dalton Mosser Kincaid, an American football tight end for the Buffalo Bills of the NFL, has made significant strides in his career and credits his parents, Clarke and Victoria Kincaid, for his success.
Born on October 18, 1999, in Nevada, he played college football for the San Diego Toreros and Utah Utes.
The Buffalo Bills selected Kincaid 25th overall in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft, making him the first tight end taken in that draft.
As of Week 11 in the 2024 season, he has accumulated 42 receptions for 424 yards and two touchdowns over 12 games.
Dalton Kincaid’s Father, Clarke Kincaid, Played a Key Role in Developing His Football Skills While He Was Young
Despite not being an athlete himself, Clark motivated Dalton to choose football as the sport in which to make a career.
Around the age of 8, when Dalton spent time jumping on a trampoline, his father turned this simple activity into a game by tossing a football over the safety net.
After three consecutive misses to catch the ball, Dalton’s turn on the trampoline would end.
This playful yet competitive routine helped Dalton sharpen his precision and knack for catching the ball.
In an interview, Dalton mentioned,
“I love my parents. They’re my backbone. They support me in everything I do and rarely miss any of my games.”

Dalton also shares a deep bond with his mother, Victoria Kincaid, also known as Vicki Kincaid.
Victoria is available on Instagram and Facebook but has decided to keep her personal life out of the public eye.
In one post featuring a picture with his mother, he wrote, “Happy Mother’s Day to the best mama out there and to my best friend.“
The second photo shows a young Kincaid beaming with a toothless smile, a charming detail that adds to the picture’s cuteness.
His father, Clarke Kincaid, is African-American, whereas his mother, Victoria Kincaid, is Caucasian.
Dalton’s parents are devout Christians. They even enrolled Dalton in Faith Lutheran High School, a private Christian high school in Summerlin, Nevada.
He played one high school football season there, earning all-state honors with 745 yards and eight touchdowns.
