Brock Bowers Knee Update | Las Vegas Raiders News

Brock Bowers’ knee surgery could sideline the Raiders’ top tight end for just a couple of games, but his injury history raises serious concerns. After missing time last year with a PCL tear and bone bruise, his rookie season was historic—setting rookie records for receptions and yards by a tight end. Now, with Kirk Cousins already struggling and the offense needing firepower, Bowers’ absence hits hard. A meniscus trim usually means a quicker return, so he may miss only the opener and possibly the second game, with Michael Mayer and Ian Thomas stepping in. Given the Raiders’ non-contender status this season, they’ll likely prioritize his long-term health over rushing him back.
