Kincade didn’t see too much of the field this season after losing a three-way battle for the starting spot with Chad Kelly and fellow sophomore Ryan Buchanan. As of the last game of the season against Mississippi State, Kincade was third on the team’s depth chart behind both signal-callers.
Kincade only played in three games, completing 9 of 15 passes for 79 yards and one touchdown and rushed nine times for 87 yards.
