The Las Vegas Raiders have arguably the league’s best tight end on their roster, and the expectation is that Brock Bowers could have an even better sophomore campaign now that he has a franchise quarterback.
With Geno Smith under center and a better play-caller in Chip Kelly, the Raiders now have a chance to have the NFL’s best tight end duo as well, with Bowers and Michael Mayer, a 2023 second-round pick out of Notre Dame.
After a very rocky 2024 season in which he missed significant time as he took care of his mental health, Mayer is now thriving in Kelly’s offense.
