Brock Bowers has been the lone bright spot on a disappointing Las Vegas Raiders team, as he is putting together 1 of the best rookie seasons ever for a tight end.
In four games in November, he finished with 32 catches for 349 yards and 3 touchdowns. In the Black Friday game against the Kansas City Chiefs, he finished with 10 catches for 140 yards and 1 touchdown.
With that type of month, Bowers was recognized by the NFL as the offensive player of the month.

He is only the 2nd Raiders player to ever win the award, as former running back Josh Jacobs (October and November of 2019) is the only other player to win the award.
Bowers led the rookies in numerous statistics for the month.
- Receptions (32)
- Receiving yards (349)
- Yards after contact (165)
- Touchdowns (3)
- First Downs (17)
Bowers currently has 84 catches for 884 yards and 4 touchdowns on the season. He is only 2 catches away from breaking the record for the most catches by a rookie tight end, with Sam Laporta having the record at 86.
It has been a down year for the Raiders, as they are only 2-10 on the season. They are going to have a high pick pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and will be in the running for a quarterback.
