STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Mayer's true inline role (33% left, 45% right) contrasts Bowers; he battles Tucker for targets in two-TE system.

Mayer is a true inline tight end, lining up left 33% and right 45% of snaps, with only 4.8% wide and 15% slot usage—the opposite profile of Brock Bowers. He's a very good player in the traditional tight end role within the Raiders' two-tight-end offense, but he's battling Trey Tucker for targets and may see inconsistent volume week-to-week. Matt Harmon notes he had a game last week with 'just some kind of layup bunny hop catches,' highlighting the efficiency variance in the offense.
