The Las Vegas Raiders will host the Denver Broncos in Week 14. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Brock Bowers.
Is Brock Bowers Playing in Week 14?
Bowers is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Raiders’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Bowers in Week 14?
Brock Bowers’ first touchdown last week was a nice play design by interim OC Greg Olson that helped him uncover in the back of the end zone and the second one was just a great player making a great play.
It’s been a bumpy season for the consensus top TE entering this season, most of it not really his fault. The QB play has been subpar (yes, it’s the holiday season and I felt like being kind) and an injury cost him more than a month.
That said, if you’ve managed to navigate the position up to his point, you have an asset that ranks behind only Trey McBride moving forward.
He’s been worthy of your trust in three straight games following the bizarre one-catch, three-target showing against the Broncos and it’s safe to assume such production moving forward.
It’s never going to be comfortable betting on a Geno Smith target, but it’s more scary to fade a talent at the level of a Bowers.
