Raiders' Michael Mayer: Ruled out versus Chargers
Mayer (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Chargers.
Mayer didn't practice this week, with his next chance to see game action set to arrive Sunday, Dec. 7 against the Broncos. In Mayer's absence this weekend, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon will work behind Las Vegas' top tight end Brock Bowers.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Misses practice Wednesday
Mayer (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.
Mayer exited this past Sunday's loss to the Browns after logging 13 snaps on offense, and the tight end's DNP on Wednesday clouds his Week 13 status. Mayer now has two more chances to practice before the Raiders unveil their final injury designations ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Hurts ankle Sunday
Mayer won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns after sustaining an ankle injury.
Before his departure from the contest, Mayer caught his only target for 14 yards. In his absence, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon are available to handle TE reps behind Brock Bowers.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Earns four targets in MNF loss
Mayer caught three of four targets for 13 yards in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys.
Mayer played 77 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps as they continue leaning into 12 personnel, but his 4.3 yards per reception marked a season low, and fellow tight end Brock Bowers paced the team in receiving with a 7-72-0 line on 12 targets. Expect a similar level of involvement for Mayer against the Browns in Week 12.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Three catches in Week 10
Mayer caught three of four targets for 22 yards in Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Broncos.
Mayer had more targets and catches than Brock Bowers, who caught one of three targets for 31 yards. Bowers had an 83 percent snap share compared to Mayer's mark of 62 percent. Given the underwhelming state of Vegas' wide receiver room, the Raiders likely will continue to keep both tight ends involved in the passing game. The team's next game is Monday, Nov. 17 at home against the Cowboys.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Targeted seven times in OT loss
Mayer caught three of seven targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to the Jaguars.
Mayer's seven targets matched his previous season high, but fellow tight end Brock Bowers stole the spotlight Sunday, erupting for a 12-127-3 receiving line on 13 total looks from quarterback Geno Smith. Nonetheless, Mayer played 83 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps, as the team remains without a legitimate WR3 threat behind Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Limited to one catch Sunday
Mayer brought in one of two targets for 10 yards in the Raiders' 31-0 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Mayer drew a second consecutive start in place of Brock Bowers (knee), but his numbers paled in comparison to the 5-50-1 line on seven targets he generated against the Titans in his initial turn with the first unit. Mayer's run as the top tight end may have come to an end Sunday, considering Bowers is expected to be healthy enough to play in a Week 9 home matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday, Nov. 2 following a Week 8 bye.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Headed for another start sans Bowers
Mayer is expected to remain a focal point of the Las Vegas passing attack Sunday against the Chiefs with top tight end Brock Bowers (knee) and top receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee/toe) inactive for the contest, Levi Edwards of the Raiders' official site reports.
Bowers is missing his third straight game, but Mayer will be stepping in as the No. 1 tight end for just the second consecutive contest, after the Notre Dame product had previously sat out losses to the Bears in Week 4 and the Colts in Week 5 due to a concussion. In his return to action for this past Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans, Mayer played 56 of 61 snaps on offense on his way to amassing a 5-50-1 receiving line on seven targets. The Raiders had Meyers available for that contest, but his absence for Week 7 along with Bowers' could free up even more volume for Mayer. The 24-year-old thus projects as a solid lineup option this week for fantasy managers looking for a Bowers replacement or otherwise in need of an alternative at the position.

Raiders' Michael Mayer: Strikes fantasy gold in spot-start
Mayer had five receptions on seven targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans.
Mayer returned from a two-game layoff to find himself as the Raiders' starting tight end sans Brock Bowers (knee). The veteran backup took full advantage of the opportunity, scoring his first touchdown of the season and rewarding savvy managers who scooped him up for Week 6. It is currently unclear if Bowers will be available for next Sunday's tilt against the Chiefs. If the starter's knee keeps him on the sidelines, then Mayer would retain his elevated streaming appeal in Week 7.
