Mayer has had a snap share of 79% or more in six of seven games this season, and has earned seven or more targets in three of those games. Don't let Brock Bowers scare you off of Mayer; Bowers is basically a wide receiver with a tight end designation.

Mayer's 79% snap share and soft Jets TE matchup make him a strong bye-week plug.

Michael Mayer is the 117th-ranked flex option and a great bye-week replacement against the Jets, who just gave up 11.1 and 12.8 half-PPR points to Greg Dulcich and Hunter Henry over the past two weeks. Mayer has had 79%+ snap share in six of seven games and earned seven or more targets in three of those games; Brock Bowers' presence should not deter, as Bowers is essentially a wide receiver with tight end designation.
