It’s breakout season.
Whether you’re hoping to find the deciding factor in the division standings or trying to win your fantasy league, there’s incredible value in finding the next young NFL stars.
This week, we’re looking for those guys. Wednesday, we took a look at a breakout candidate for each team in the NFC. Today, we follow suit with the AFC.
AFC EAST
Buffalo Bills: TE Dalton Kincaid
Kincaid’s name is bigger than most of the guys on the list. He was the first tight end drafted last year and had a strong rookie season.

Miami Dolphins: RB Jaylen Wright

After all, why would the Dolphins trade up to draft Wright with Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane already on the roster? He might not have a huge role, but here’s guessing Wright will make the type of plays that turn heads.

The stats weren’t impressive, but his power and motor jumped off the screen. A big Year 2 jump would go a long way for the New England defense — especially now that the club has traded Matthew Judon.
New York Jets: DE Jermaine Johnson
The Jets might have no choice but to continue churning out badass pass-rushers. Bryce Huff is off to Philadelphia, John Franklin-Myers is in Denver now and apparently Haason Reddick might not show up this season. Fortunately, New York has another budding star in…
