The Raiders dropped a bombshell on Wednesday, announcing that Brock Bowers had knee surgery to repair his meniscus. Bowers will miss at least this contest. In four games without Bowers last year, Michael Mayer logged a 78.4% route participation rate, 23.7% target share, 0.26 TPRR, 4.5 receptions per game, 49.0 receiving yards per game

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Mayer is elite punt value with Bowers out; averaged 10.9 DK points in four games.

With Brock Bowers out with knee surgery to repair his meniscus, Mayer will see elevated usage. In four games without Bowers last year, Mayer logged a 78.4% route participation rate, 23.7% target share, 0.26 TPRR, 4.5 receptions per game, 49.0 receiving yards per game, 2.25 Y/RR, one receiving touchdown, 10.90 DraftKings points per game, 9.68 expected DraftKings points per game, 8.65 FanDuel points per game, and 7.55 expected FanDuel points per game. Mayer is a no-brainer punt at tight end in cash games at both DFS sites and a sweet pick in GPPs as well.
