Brock Bowers aims for breakout season with Raiders in 2026
Summary

The Las Vegas Raiders are preparing for the 2026 NFL season, expecting a resurgence from tight end Brock Bowers. Analyst Eric Karabell notes Bowers will benefit from improved quarterback play and an upgraded offensive line after a challenging 2025. Despite health issues and a struggling offense last season, the Raiders drafted quarterback Fernando Mendoza and bolstered the receiving corps to enhance Bowers' performance. If Bowers remains healthy, increased support from teammates may allow him to reclaim his status as one of the top tight ends in the league.
