Michael Mayer Activated From NFI List
Michael Mayer Activated From NFI List
Raiders TE Michael Mayer has been activated from the NFI list, setting him up to play against the Dolphins on Sunday. Mayer has been out for personal reasons since Week 3. He totaled just four catches on seven targets over the first three games of the season and shouldn't be in fantasy lineups. TE Brock Bowers ran a route on just 66% of pass plays with Mayer to start the season, spiking to 83% without Mayer over the last six games. But we suspect that was more a case of the Raiders easing Bowers in early in his rookie campaign. We'll keep an eye on the situation, but we're not expecting Mayer to impact Bowers' playing time.
Michael Mayer Out For Week 5
Michael Mayer Out For Week 5
Raiders TE Michael Mayer (personal) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Broncos. TE Brock Bowers underwhelmed in the box score last week, but he registered a season-high 81% route rate with Mayer out. The rookie is a strong Week 5 fantasy play.
Davante Adams Still Out Wednesday
Davante Adams Still Out Wednesday
Raiders WR Davante Adams (hamstring) remained sidelined on Wednesday. With trade talks for the veteran seemingly underway, don't expect him or the team to push him to play through this hamstring injury. Fantasy owners should not be counting on Adams in Week 5 lineups as of now. TE Michael Mayer (personal) also did not practice on Wednesday.
Michael Mayer Won't Play Week 4
Michael Mayer Won't Play Week 4
Raiders TE Michael Mayer is out for this weekend's game vs. the Browns. He missed Thursday and Friday's practices and is listed on the injury report with "personal." We don't have any other details on his situation. Mayer ran a route on 43% of pass plays and drew seven targets over the first three weeks of the season. His absence is another boost to TE Brock Bowers, on top of WR Davante Adams being out.
Brock Bowers Out With Sore Foot
Brock Bowers Out With Sore Foot
Raiders TE Brock Bowers is currently sidelined with a sore foot, according to The Athletic's Vic Tafur. The rookie missed Saturday's preseason game and remained sidelined for Tuesday's practice. There's been no update from the team on the extent of Bowers' injury or his timeline for return.
Mayer boasts high-end production and pro polish. Call it a strong starting point for his dynasty fantasy football value with the Raiders.
