Raiders’ Bowers Questionable for Colts Game, but Mayer Might Return
Bowers, tied for fifth among NFL tight ends with 19 receptions, missed practice due to a persistent left knee injury that has limited his performance since the season opener.
- Updated October 2, 2025 — Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers missed practice Thursday while working through a left knee injury, and Pete Carroll said he did not practice for two straight days but is trending to suit up Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts.
- Bowers' left knee, aggravated in Week 1, has kept him working with a knee brace, limiting him to around 70-80 percent and reducing his explosiveness.
- Through four games, Bowers has 19 catches for 225 yards, boosted by a five-catch, 103-yard opener and 14 receptions for 122 yards since then.
- With medical staff concerned, the Raiders rested Bowers Thursday, as Pete Carroll said, `We just want to make sure and slow it down a little bit and give him some extra rest.`
- Carroll said Wednesday that Bowers' injury has not changed the Raiders' offense, and he hopes to give Brock Bowers the ball more in the coming weeks.
