Brock Bowers's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Barring anything highly unexpected, Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers cemented himself as the single-best player at his position in the league with a monster performance, catching 10 of his 14 targets for 140 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 in a loss to the Chiefs on Black Friday. Like many other defenses, the Kansas City Chiefs had no answer for his ridiculous skillset. He can run routes like a wide receiver, can shake defenders out of their shoes, has excellent hands and football IQ, and is a matchup nightmare one-on-one with any defender in the league. He's an elite fantasy TE1 and will probably finish as this year's TE1 while putting up WR1 numbers. At this rate, he could be a first-round pick in next year's fantasy drafts. He'll face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14. Expect more dominance from the Raiders' brightest star.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers caught just four of his 10 targets for 38 yards in Week 12. You shouldn't care. He'll face a tough Kansas City Chiefs defense in Week 13. You shouldn't care about that either. He'll also have to adapt to another change in his team's starting quarterback position -- Aidan O'Connell (thumb) will be the team's signal-caller on Friday. You still shouldn't care at all because Bowers is one of the best tight ends in the league, and he should continue to earn massive target volume and produce mightily for fantasy managers. Lock him into your starting lineups. He could still finish as the TE1 on the year. He's a beast, and you're lucky or just plain smart if you drafted him.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers had his second-least productive game of the season in Week 12. His team's opponent, the Denver Broncos, seemed to get the message -- slow down Bowers if you want to win. They bracketed him early and often, holding him to just four catches on his 10 targets. He gained only 38 receiving yards, his lowest total since Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns. That team has been excellent against tight ends this year as well. Sometimes bad matchups happen, but that shouldn't deter you away from the rookie in fantasy football. No serious team should bench him in fantasy football. He's a top-3 option moving forward and could still finish as the overall TE1. HIs team will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13, and while they're a solid defense, you must start BB.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is in his first year of the pros, but he already looks like an elite player at his position. He might be the best TE in the NFL right now. He'll face the Denver Broncos in Week 12. They had no answer for him in Week 5, when he caught eight of his 12 targets for 97 yards and a touchdown. That was his best game for fantasy football of the season... until last week, when he caught 13 of 16 targets for 126 yards and a touchdown. He was considered to be one of the best tight end prospects in NFL Draft history, and he's easily living up to those expectations. Start him in every league every week he plays without blinking an eye. He could be a league-winner.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers was targeted 16 times in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins, catching 13 of those passes for 126 yards and a touchdown. He was once again the lone bright spot in the team's loss, as no other offensive or defensive player on his team shined as bright as he did. It's becoming a common theme in his inaugural season, and it seems set to continue. As long as quarterback Gardner Minshew II starts, at least. But he's an elite player at his position already, and it seems that any QB that plays for this team would be well served in spamming the ball in his direction. He's an elite TE option in fantasy and should be started every week from now on, even in Week 11 against a tough Denver Broncos defense.
