• Raiders' Brock Bowers: Does little with six catches

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Bowers brought in six of eight targets for 28 yards in the Raiders' 31-0 loss to the Eagles on Sunday. Bowers led the Raiders in receptions, targets and even receiving yards on an afternoon during which Kenny Pickett netted just 64 yards on his 15 completions. The talented tight end's production has been capped to an extent this season due to Las Vegas' suboptimal quarterback situation, but Bowers will still head into a tough Week 16 road matchup against the Texans next Sunday afternoon with at least four receptions in five consecutive games.

• Raiders' Brock Bowers: Another touchdown in losing effort

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Bowers recorded four receptions on five targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos. Bowers made a quick impact in the game, with his first catch going for a 15-yard score on the final play of the first quarter. That matched his longest gain of the game, and though his performance was muted for most of the remainder of the contest, Bowers ultimately finished second on the team in targets, receptions and yards. He will likely remain plagued by poor quarterback play for the rest of the season, though he has still managed six touchdowns in his last six matchups.

• Raiders' Brock Bowers: Scores twice in 31-14 loss

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Bowers caught all four of his targets for 63 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Chargers. Bowers tied the game at a touchdown apiece with a six-yard touchdown catch shortly after the two-minute warning in the second quarter, then secured a spectacular one-handed catch for another six-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. The 2024 first-round pick missed the entire month of October due to a knee injury but bounced back in November, catching 30 of 41 targets for 348 yards and five touchdowns across five games. Bowers should continue to work as the top option in the Raiders' passing game against the Broncos in Week 14.

• Raiders' Brock Bowers: Gains 55 yards Sunday

  24D ago • By RotoWire

  Bowers had six receptions on nine targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Browns. Bowers produced a modest receiving line while finishing second on the team behind WR Tre Tucker in targets (10) and RB Ashton Jeanty in receptions (eight). While the final results were digestible, Bowers' managers are left wondering what could have been had QB Geno Smith looked the star tight end's way more often instead of taking numerous unsuccessful deep shots to Tucker. Poor playcalling and quarterback play aside, Bowers remains an elite fantasy option week in, week out based on pure talent alone. Expect Bowers to remain a focal point of the passing offense for the struggling Raiders in next Sunday's road tilt against the Chargers.

• Raiders' Brock Bowers: Leading receiver on 12 targets

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  Bowers finished with seven receptions (on 12 targets) for 72 yards in Monday's 33-16 loss to the Cowboys. Bowers was able to get back on track following last week's one-catch dud, finishing Monday's loss as the Raiders' leading receiver on a team-high 12 targets. The 22-year-old phenom did suffer a couple of uncharacteristic drops, but the seven receptions still checked in as his second-highest total through seven starts. A healthy Bowers will attempt to make up for time lost to a knee injury earlier in the campaign with a strong run in the second half. His next opportunity to build on a 39-455-3 receiving line will come in a home matchup against the Browns on Sunday.
