Brock Bowers News
Sunday, September 13, 6:02 PM
Sam Warren of The Athletic reports that he spotted Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) walking out of the Raiders' locker room "unaided" with a leg sleeve on his left leg, following Las Vegas' 27-13 season-opening win over the Miami Dolphins. The positive update comes on the heels of a report by ESPN's Adam Schefter that Bowers could potentially return in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Chargers in L.A. Bowers underwent a meniscus trim on Sept. 8. While Bowers is out, Michael Mayer will benefit in the Raiders' offense. Mayer saw seven targets in Week 1 and recorded six receptions for 32 yards. When Bowers returns at full health, he will immediately jump back into his status as an elite fantasy football tight end.

Harold Fannin Jr. News
Sunday, September 13, 2:43 PM
Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. caught just two of his three targets for 21 yards during Sunday's Week 1 loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 22-year-old is looking to build on an impressive rookie campaign in which he ranked as the TE6 with 72 catches, 731 yards, and six touchdowns. He still has that top-six upside, but Sunday's disappointing game is a step in the wrong direction. Fannin's struggles were partly the product of poor quarterback play, as Deshaun Watson finished with just 16 completions, 205 yards, one interception, and one garbage-time touchdown. If there's any reason to be optimistic, it's that the Browns project to be trailing a lot this year, so they'll consistently be looking to throw the football. That bodes well for Fannin's volume share, but he might not get a ton of opportunities near the end zone if the Browns struggle to sustain drives. For now, Fannin is a fringe top-12 fantasy tight end heading into Week 2 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
