After not practicing on Wednesday or Thursday, the team announced that he would not suit up against Kansas City.
As the 8-2 Bills host the undefeated Chiefs on Sunday, the injury report will be lengthy.
It is already confirmed that Kincaid and WR Keon Coleman will be out. Other important offensive players like WR Amari Cooper and OT Spencer Brown are listed as questionable.

Through 10 games this season, Kincaid has 34 receptions for 356 yards and two touchdowns.
From week three to week 10, the former Ute has been targeted at least five times each game.
Buffalo already has a tall mountain to climb as they look to hand the Chiefs their first loss. But, the task becomes even tougher considering they won’t be at full strength.
