Mayer gets starter role with Bowers out; averaged 10.9 PPG in four-game sample last year.

With Brock Bowers sidelined by a meniscus trim and expected to miss a couple of games to open the season, Mayer will get a chance to shine as the starter. In four games without Bowers last year, Mayer averaged 10.9 fantasy points, 4.5 receptions and 49 receiving yards per game. His efficiency metrics were satisfactory: 14th in target separation (2.02), 17th in first downs per route run (0.081), and 21st in yards per route run (1.48). Mayer will be one of Kirk Cousins' main targets while Bowers is on the mend, making him a priority add for Bowers managers and a strong short-term option for early-season tight end production.
