Raiders TE Brock Bowers 'OK' after being hit on knee

Brock Bowers, who set the NFL rookie record with 112 receptions last season, suffered a knee injury after a low hit and limping, leaving his return uncertain in Week 1.

  • On Sunday, Raiders tight end Brock Bowers suffered a knee injury during the fourth quarter at Gillette Stadium and exited the season-opener, being listed questionable to return by ESPN's Adam Schefter but not playing again.
  • A sideline sequence showed Brock Bowers limping two plays after absorbing a low blow near the sideline, then he tested and stretched his leg before entering the team medical tent and being ruled questionable.
  • In the game, Brock Bowers collected five receptions for 103 yards, leading the Las Vegas Raiders offense and following a 2024 rookie season with 112 catches for 1,194 yards.
  • Without Bowers, the Raiders will lean on Michael Mayer, Raiders backup tight end, to take a larger role as Las Vegas Raiders secured a 20-13 win over the New England Patriots.
  • Team and league sources say they will closely monitor Brock Bowers's condition with updates expected soon, while Bowers is confident he won't miss time and experts remain optimistic this year.
