Fantasy Life Articles on Michael Mayer

Mayer's 76% route share makes him a back-end TE1 handcuff to Bowers in favorable matchups.

The Raiders stayed in two-tight-end personnel even while trailing in Week 7, and Mayer ran a route on 76% of their dropbacks alongside Bowers. Play-action is used on 18% of his routes and 24% begin from the slot. He's been targeted on 27% of his flat routes and 35% of his play-action routes, giving Kirk Cousins another underneath option. He can give back-end TE1 weeks in favorable matchups and is one of the few or only TE handcuffs (will not be as good as Bowers).
