Brock Bowers Doubtful versus the Chargers as Raiders Weigh a Game-Day Decision
Brock Bowers is a game-day decision after meniscus surgery, and coach Klint Kubiak said Michael Mayer will take a larger role if he sits.
- On Friday, Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers returned to practice for the first time since his Sept. 8 meniscus surgery, though he remains doubtful to play in Sunday's divisional matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
- Raiders coach Klint Kubiak said the team will evaluate Bowers during pregame warmups, emphasizing the team will be smart with his recovery while listening to wellness coordinator Alex Guerrero.
- Michael Mayer, who caught six passes for 32 yards in last week's victory, will continue to serve as the team's primary tight end if Bowers cannot play against the Chargers.
- Cornerback Darien Porter has been ruled out for Sunday's contest due to a foot injury, though Kubiak remains optimistic Bowers will return for the Sept. 27 game against the New Orleans Saints.
- Bowers, who recorded 1,194 yards in his historic 2024 rookie season, has struggled with persistent knee issues recently, including a similar injury that disrupted his production during last year's campaign.
