FantasyPros Articles on Brock Bowers

Bowers' elite rookie production and alpha role support back-half-of-second-round target.

Brock Bowers enters his third NFL season with great expectations following an injury-plagued Year 2. After sustaining a PCL injury and bone bruise to his left knee in the 2025 season opener, Bowers returned to score seven touchdowns in eight games before being placed on injured reserve. Widely considered one of the best TE prospects to ever enter the league, Bowers had 112 catches for 1,194 yards and five touchdowns on 153 targets as a rookie. With better health in 2026, he has a chance to match or exceed his rookie numbers. The Raiders are talent-starved at wide receiver, so Bowers is poised to be their alpha pass catcher. New head coach Klint Kubiak and No. 1 overall draft pick Fernando Mendoza offer hope at the QB position, and the Raiders also have TE-friendly QB Kirk Cousins, who was quarterbacking the Falcons in Week 15 when TE Kyle Pitts had 11 catches for 166 yards and three TDs. Bowers is worth a look in the back half of the second round or early in the third round of 12-team fantasy drafts.
