Brock Bowers (knee) considered week-to-week

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Pete Carroll called tight end Brock Bowers "week-to-week" with a knee injury that sidelined him in Week 5. (Paul Gutierrez on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Carroll has become notorious for being unreliable when it comes to injury information, so it was no surprise when Bowers, who seemed to be trending down, was inactive despite Carroll asserting his expectation for him to play. Bowers admitted that he was unable to move to the level he expected, and so it makes sense that he may sit out for a bit to recover. Las Vegas plays Tennessee and Kansas City before getting a bye week, and so it could be possible that Bowers is out until then. Michael Mayer should be the team's top tight end option, but Ian Thomas led the team in snaps in Week 5 with Bowers and Mayer out.
