Austin Hooper: Facing competition for No. 1 role

Hooper could slide to No. 2 on the depth chart after the Raiders selected fellow tight end Michael Mayer with the 35th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Vic Tafur of TheAthletic.com reports.

Analysis: Hooper originally faced little competition for the No. 1 role at tight end when he signed with Las Vegas in March after the team dealt Darren Waller to the Giants, but a second-round rookie has since entered the conversation as Mayer projects to vulture first-team reps sooner rather than later. Mayer's introduction therefore limits the ceiling on Hooper's fantasy outlook, and 2017 first rounder O.J. Howard could factor into the TE mix as well.
