Should You Start or Sit Brock Bowers in Week 13?
With a touchdown or 10 targets in six of his past seven games, Brock Bowers is giving you an edge in expected production at the position over every team in your league. The loss of Gardner Minshew II isn’t something that I’m worried about as the game plan should remain in place while the quality of looks can’t really move down.
You’re playing Bowers, and you’re doing it with confidence. Rookie tight ends have historically struggled, and an outlier like Bowers isn’t enough to reverse those trends completely. Tyler Warren of Penn State is a weapon, but I’m going to get ahead of it by nine months — be careful in moving him way up your 2025 rankings. He’s great, but this remains a historically difficult position to transition to the professional game.
