This thrusts a very capable Michael Mayer into a larger role in a good matchup. The Dolphins allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends last season. This was an expected smash-spot for Bowers to open his season with. Mayer now has that opportunity at a heavily discounted salary.

Mayer inherits Bowers' role and smash spot vs. Miami at a discount.

Mayer is thrust into a larger role following Brock Bowers' knee injury; he faces Miami, which allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends last season—the matchup that was expected to be a smash-spot for Bowers; at a heavily discounted salary, Mayer will be a chalky play better suited for cash games but certainly viable in GPP contests as well due to his increased role and cost efficiency.
