Raiders TE Brock Bowers expected to miss "one or two" games

Adam Schefter

yesterday · 4:23 PM EDT

Raiders All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers underwent a meniscus trim Tuesday in Dallas with Dr. Daniel Cooper and now is expected to miss “a game or two”, league sources told @rapsheet and me. Bowers got banged up “a little in camp” and the injury was diagnosed last week and surgery scheduled.

Related Players: Michael Mayer, Ian Thomas, Tre Tucker, Jalen Nailor, Jack Bech

Fantasy Impact:

Bowers must be removed from Week 1 lineups but remains an obvious hold, with the initial timetable pointing toward a relatively short absence. Mayer becomes an immediate waiver addition and viable Week 1 streamer against Miami, with enough projected route and target volume to enter the TE1/2 fringe conversation. Tucker should also absorb additional targets, while Nailor and Bech receive smaller boosts. Bowers’ Week 2 availability appears doubtful, with Week 3 representing a reasonable but not guaranteed return target.

Raiders place TE Brock Bowers on IR

The Raiders are placing star TE Brock Bowers on injured reserve today, officially ending his season, per sources.

Bowers has dealt with a knee injury since Week 1. With playoffs long out of reach, the decision was made to get it taken care of now and focus on being 100% in 2026.

Related Players: Michael Mayer

Fantasy Impact:

An absolutely cursed season for the Las Vegas Raiders. Mayer is closer to streaming territory over the last two weeks of the season, but there are better options on the waiver wire.

Raiders fire OC Chip Kelly

The Raiders followed up their loss to the Browns on Sunday afternoon by firing offensive coordinator Chip Kelly 11 games into his first season with the team.

Related players: Geno Smith, Ashton Jeanty, Brock Bowers

Fantasy Impact:

Kelly’s work had been the subject of grumbling throughout the season, the story said. The Raiders rank near the bottom of the league in most offensive metrics, the story pointed out. A new coordinator may not drastically change the Raiders offense all that much, but fantasy owners of players like Jeanty and Bowers are hoping the team looks to get the ball in those players hands a little more for the rest of the season.

Raiders Beat: TE Michael Mayer could see increase in targets

Ryan McFadden on X

Brock Bowers will obviously see his targets increase, so should Michael Mayer.

Fantasy Impact:

The Raiders WR room isn't exactly a lot of household names, and with Bowers almost a WR anyway, having Mayer in the fold getting more work makes some sense. McFadden added in his post that, against Jacksonville, Mayer was targeted seven times for three catches and 26 yards last week, as Raiders utilized 12 personnel more than any game this season. This could be a theme going forward for the Raiders, making Mayer a guy to take a shot on and at least stash away for a few weeks to see if this theory pans out.
