The connection Buffalo Bills fans have been waiting to see this offseason is finally here.

Sure, OTAs are just guys in shorts, t-shirts and helmets, as coach Sean McDermott simply put it. But it's still exciting to see quarterback Josh Allen and first-round rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid start to build that chemistry on the Bills practice field as OTAs continued Tuesday.

Take a look:

"I was very excited to be able to work with him," Allen said. "He’s young, he's very talented. He's got a lot of room to grow. But his ceiling is very high and we're excited to have him on our squad."

Allen also praised Kincaid for making some "unreal catches" and showed excitement for what he can bring to the offense. Of course, the Allen-Kincaid highlight Buffalo shared on Twitter is just your run-of-the-mill pitch-and-catch, but the duo likely had some bigger plays off screen.

"The fluidity just in terms of how he moves, getting in and out of cuts, when he catches the ball knifing up forward," Allen said. "And then you look at his catch radius, he makes some pretty unreal catches."

Bills Mafia will be waiting for more highlights this season between Allen and Kincaid, something that could be well within reach if the rookie lives up to the standard he set for himself in college at Utah.

At 6-4, 240 pounds, Kincaid brings nice size to the tight end position, but separates himself from the rest of most guys that play the position due to his receiving skills. In four of his five collegiate seasons, he caught at least eight touchdown passes. During his freshman season as San Diego, 11 of his 24 catches for the season were touchdowns.

From San Diego, to Utah, to joining one of the most popular teams in the NFL, Kincaid now has some big expectations to live up to based on what he's projected to bring to the Buffalo offense.
