The Las Vegas Raiders (1-4) will host the Tennessee Titans (1-4) in Week 6. 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 6?
Bowers (knee) is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Titans. Check back here for more updates as we get closer to game time.
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 Brock Bowers in Week 6?
The Raiders continue to use the “day-to-day” label for Brock Bowers as he works to get right from a knee injury that has limited him for the majority of this season.
It’s worth noting that Las Vegas goes on bye in Week 8, making it very possible that the team opts to slow-play this situation through October with a player they view as a centerpiece to their growth.
Michael Mayer is likely to return this week (concussion), and the Raiders did open the season in something of a split. You’re playing Bowers once he returns to action, but he has to earn back his status as a Tier 1 tight end.
