From the episode

Michael Mayer with the Raiders... He ran 78% of the routes per team drop back this last week with Jack Besh got hurt. He broke his arm or something, broke his forearm... mayor is essentially going to be a tight end. They're number one tight end and Bowers is going to be their X receiver.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Mayer's 78% route share could expand in two-TE sets with Bowers.

Mayer ran 78% of routes per team drop back for the Raiders this last week after Jack Beshear broke his forearm. The source notes the Raiders may run more two tight end sets with Mayer as their number one tight end and Bowers as their X receiver, making Mayer potentially useful despite scraping the bottom of the barrel at the position.
