Raiders TE Brock Bowers (knee) considered week to week

Oct 07, 2025

Raiders tight end Brock Bowers suffered a knee injury during the team’s Week 1 win over the Patriots and has been dealing with it since.

Bowers did not play in Las Vegas’ loss to Indianapolis on Sunday and his status is now up in the air for Week 6.

“[H]e’s week-to-week,” head coach Pete Carroll said in his Monday press conference. “We got to see what’s going on and see if we can get him back. And he’s dying to play. We went all the way till Saturday’s walk-through to see if he could go, and it didn’t feel like he could. So, we’ll just start over again, do it again this week.”

Fantasy Impact:

Bowers owners are likely thinking back to when they heard the knee injury wasn't considered serious. Since then, Bowers had limped through a couple of weeks and now is in danger of missing his second-straight week of action. As the story said, Mayer also didn't play due to a concussion but could be back this week and may be a decent replacement option for Bowers owners.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley expected to play despite 'general soreness'

Pro Football Talk

Eagles running back Saquon Barkley popped up on Monday’s practice report with a knee injury and was estimated as a non-participant.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Barkley has “general soreness” and expects to play in Thursday Night Football against the Giants.

Fantasy Impact:

Barkley was listed as a DNP for Monday ahead of Thursday night's game against his former team, the Giants. Ironically, Barkley's snap percentage has been down from last year. The story pointed out Barkley played 85% of the snaps through this point last year compared to 72% this season.

Kyler Murray (foot) will be monitored.

Fantasy Impact:

Murray was seemingly injured on the play where the snapped ball hit him in the face and the Cardinals lost possession. Murray was shown heading for the locker room but was able to return for the team's next possession after missing a couple of plays. One would assume Murray will be good to go for Week 6, but since the team is monitoring him, we will as well.

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (knee) listed as DNP Monday

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley was listed as DNP Monday with a knee injury.

Related players: Will Shipley, A.J. Dillon, Tank Bigsby

Fantasy Impact:

This will be one to watch on a short week against the Giants. Barkley hasn't been much of a factor in the run game this season after going over 2,000 yards last year. He did catch a TD pass in Week 5's loss to the Broncos. We'll keep an eye on this one. If Barkley can't go on a short week, Dillon and Shipley will likely split the workload and Bigsby could be a factor as well.
