From the article

The 24-year-old former 35th overall pick peaked with 5-50-1 and 9-89-0 performances in Week 6 and Week 17 last season, but it's not like he got much going otherwise even with Brock Bowers only playing 12 games. Still, this lackluster (to be nice) WR room sure looks like the sort of group that could coerce a play-caller to lean on multi-TE formations.

STACKED’s take

Mayer's weak WR room and multi-TE formations could unlock pre-2026 upside.

The 24-year-old former 35th overall pick peaked with 5-50-1 and 9-89-0 performances in Week 6 and Week 17 last season but didn't get much going otherwise even with Brock Bowers only playing 12 games; however, the lackluster wide receiver room could coerce the play-caller to lean on multi-TE formations, and a superior overall offensive environment could help produce upside.
