From the episode
Had the 2025 PCL issue. Had the August 2026 knee issue. Makes his season debut here and just immediately shreds. 10 catches, 116 yards, and a touchdown on a 39% target share... Brock Bowers is the hardest cover in the entire NFL... Brock Bowers is the Raiders' number one receiver.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalBreakout
Bowers' 39% target share debut suggests round-one redraft consideration.
Made season debut after 2025 PCL and August 2026 knee issues with immediate impact: 10 catches, 116 yards, 1 TD on 39% target share in Raiders' 35-27 win over Saints. Evan Silva notes Bowers is the hardest cover in the NFL, being used as an X receiver by Clint Kubiak similar to how Jackson Smith-Njigba is deployed; Raiders treating him as their number one receiver going forward. Silva emphasizes pedigree confidence—two-time Mackey Award winner competing with serious college target competition, then 112 catches as rookie tight end (record)—suggesting this is not an outlier but the real deal.
