Per Edwards, the Raiders believe Bowers' versatility is his "greatest weapon." He will remain one of the top tight ends in fantasy football alongside Trey McBride.

Brock Bowers told reporters he "feels great" being back on the field.

Bowers missed time last season with a knee injury he suffered in Week 1. He is entering camp fully healthy as one of the top tight ends in the NFL.

This move by the Raiders ends the season a couple of weeks early for Bowers. The Pro-Bowl TE has dealt with a knee issue pretty much all season long, and he will now focus on recovery and getting ready for next season. Bowers averaged over five receptions and 56.7 yards per game while hauling in seven touchdown passes across 12 games in year two of his career. Michael Mayer moves to the top TE spot for the Raiders, with Ian Thomas likely to see a few more snaps as well.

Brock Bowers caught five passes for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Houston Texans.

Fantasy Impact

Bowers finished with an underwhelming 33 yards on Sunday, but he was able to make up for that by racking up five total catches, one of which went for a touchdown against the Texans. He hasn't been particularly good recently but will continue to have high week-to-week upside over the last couple games of the season.

Brock Bowers caught 6-of-8 targets for 28 yards in the Raiders 31-0 loss to the Eagles.

Bowers led the team in targets, receptions, and receiving yardage in the loss. His 28 receiving yards are his lowest total of the season as the Raiders' passing attack struggled to get anything going Sunday. Bowers will look to bounce back against the Texans in Week 16.
