Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was removed from the team's final Week 13 injury report on Thursday, but he will be a healthy scratch for Friday's divisional matchup against the hosting Kansas City Chiefs. Bryant sat out of the last two games due to his ankle injury and will now miss a third straight contest, although it appears he's put his ankle injury in the rearview mirror. The 26-year-old is the third QB in Vegas behind both Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer, so he's well off the fantasy radar now that Mayer is back with the team. In his first year with the Raiders in 2024, Bryant has barely been involved in the eight games he's been active for, catching nine of his 12 targets for 86 yards and no touchdowns.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was listed as a full participant during Tuesday's walkthrough. That is an encouraging sign after Bryant has been forced to miss each of the last two games. It appears Bryant is trending in the right direction ahead of Friday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. If active, Bryant will probably serve as the third option behind Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer. There's not enough playing time available to make Bryant worth a look in fantasy formats right now.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) registered two limited practices before the weekend and picked up a questionable tag. He was since ruled inactive before their late-afternoon kickoff. Bryant was getting some extra snaps with fellow tight end Michael Mayer out for a while, but it looks like that will flip-fop with Mayer back on the field. Brock Bowers remains the TE1 though, so he'll see the bulk of the snaps.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was labeled as a DNP on Wednesday for the team's first practice of the week. Bryant did not suit up for the Raiders' Week 11 outing against the Miami Dolphins, and it's the third time he was listed as a non-participant dating back to last Wednesday while battling through an ankle injury. Second-year tight end Michael Mayer returned to action against Miami after a lengthy absence and participated in 52% of Las Vegas' snaps, so it's likely that when Bryant is active, he'll be back to playing third fiddle in the TE room. Still, with standout rookie tight end Brock Bowers garnering 26.4% of the team's targets, Mayer and Bryant will just be vying for the scraps.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins. Bryant had not been listed on the injury report, and his absence is a direct result of Michael Mayer (personal) returning from an extended absence on Sunday. Even with Mayer taking Bryant's place on the gameday roster, Brock Bowers remains the only Raiders tight end worth starting in fantasy football.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Miami Dolphins. The fifth-year veteran kicked off the week tagged with a DNP but was able to log a limited session on Thursday before being downgraded again on Friday. Bryant has dealt with a few injuries this season and will now miss his second game of 2024. With teammate Michael Mayer (personal) deemed questionable, Las Vegas is in danger of being down two tight ends for the matchup. If Mayer cannot play, rookie sensation Brock Bowers would be slated for all the work he can handle, with Justin Shorter rotating in behind him. Shorter has appeared in three games this season but has yet to command a target on nine total snaps.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was able to get through a limited practice session on Thursday. Bryant suffered an ankle injury during the Week 9 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He was off last week with the Raiders having a bye week. Bryant didn't practice to open the week, but returned as a limited participant on Thursday. He seems to have a decent chance at suiting up for the Week 11 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Bryant has seven receptions for 65 yards over his last three games, but doesn't have much fantasy value with Brock Bowers ahead of him on the depth chart.
Nov 14, 2024 9:28 PM EST
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. Bryant has filled a depth role in Las Vegas season, catching just nine passes for 86 yards through eight games. Although the 26-year-old has been serving as the backup to Brock Bowers recently, he'll drop down to No. 3 on the depth chart with the imminent return of Michael Mayer (personal). Between ranking third on the depth chart and battling a significant ankle issue, Bryant can be avoided in all fantasy leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Raiders initially listed him as questionable, but he ultimately did not return. At the time of his departure, he had caught each of his two targets for 22 yards through the air. Justin Shorter will step up as the backup tight end behind Brock Bowers for the duration of Bryant's absence.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (elbow) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the wrong direction after missing three consecutive practices. Bryant hasn't been on the fantasy radar this year, but he has been playing well with five catches and 43 yards over the last two weeks. John Samuel Shenker, who is still searching for his first career target, will back up Brock Bowers in Week 8.

Former Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant reached an agreement with the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday on a one-year, $3.25 million deal with a maximum value of $4 million, according to a source. Bryant was a fourth-round selection by the Browns in 2020 out of Florida Atlantic. The 25-year-old hasn't been on the fantasy radar at all, really, totaling 89 catches on 128 targets for 791 yards and 10 total touchdowns in his four seasons in Cleveland. With the move to Vegas, he'll be expected to serve as the No. 2 tight end behind second-year man Michael Mayer now that Austin Hooper moved on in free agency. In 17 regular-season games (nine starts) for the Browns in 2023, Bryant had a career-low 13 receptions for 81 yards and three touchdowns while working behind David Njoku.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant could be in for a larger role in his team's Week 18 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Starter David Njoku (rest/knee/illness) missed practice on Wednesday but got in limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. The star tight end is listed without an injury designation heading into Week 18 but the Browns already have the No. 5 seed in the AFC locked up and are planning to rest several starters in what is a meaningless game for them. If Njoku doesn't end up playing, Bryant would see starter's snaps and settle in as a TE2 for the final week of the regular season against a Bengals team that is allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. He would also make for an interesting cheap option as a dart throw in DFS contests.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant caught all five of his targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in a 36-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13. Bryant hauled in a receiving touchdown for his second consecutive game when he came down with an eight-yard pass from Joe Flacco in the fourth quarter. Bryant saw extra playing time with the Browns dealing with injuries at wide receiver, including Amari Cooper (concussion). Look for Cleveland to run more two-tight end sets in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars if Cooper doesn't pass the league's concussion protocol in time.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant caught his lone target for a two-yard touchdown in a 29-12 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 12. He also lost a fumble on his lone carry of the game. Bryant was on the receiving end of the first career touchdown pass for rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson on a short catch in the third quarter. The veteran tight end has been barely used in 2023 as he has just three catches on eight targets. He will take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant (hip) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts. Bryant had been listed as questionable heading into the weekend, but the expectation was that he would play. While Cleveland will benefit from his presence on Sunday, the fourth-year tight end is not on the fantasy radar. He has just three catches, seven yards, and one touchdown while continuing to operate behind David Njoku. Leave him on waivers in fantasy football.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant (hip) is listed as questionable for Week 7's game against the Indianapolis Colts. Bryant did not practice to start the week but was able to participate in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday. The 25-year-old has seen a snap share of 31% so far in 2023 and has just three receptions for seven yards and one touchdown. With David Njoku (hands, face) not hindered by the burns suffered in a home accident, Bryant will remain second in line for work among the Browns' tight ends and is not worth rostering for fantasy purposes.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant put up a donut in the score column in Monday night's 26-22 loss to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Bryant was unable to haul in either of his two targets in the game after catching two of his four targets for five yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Meanwhile, David Njoku caught all four of his targets on Monday for 48 yards. Bryant's first target of the night deflected off his hands and went for a pick-six to Pittsburgh's defense to open the scoring. The 25-year-old played 27 offensive snaps to Jordan Akins' nine, but he's still well behind Njoku in the tight end pecking order in Cleveland and can be ignored for fantasy purposes.
