Who Should I Start? Brock Bowers or Tetairoa McMillan

Friday, August 1, 6:42 PM

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (undisclosed) was on the sideline during Friday's practice. Bowers was attending the practice, but didn't participate at all. It's unclear if this was a routine rest day or if Bowers is dealing with an injury. There's a good chance that this was a routine rest day for Bowers who figures to remain the focal point of the Raiders passing attack this upcoming season. Last season, Bowers hauled in 112 receptions for 1,194 receiving yards, and five touchdowns in 17 games during his rookie campaign. The 22-year-old is the No. 1 fantasy tight end heading into the regular season.

Carolina Panthers first-round draft pick Tetairoa McMillan caught two of five targets for 43 yards in his first NFL action in Friday's 30-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns. McMillan hauled in a 30-yard deep ball from starting quarterback Bryce Young, but unfortunately dropped an open touchdown. He was targeted on three of Young's six pass attempts, suggesting that his target share could be ranked among some of the best receivers in the NFL. Young was looking McMillan's way early and often, and their chemistry should improve throughout the season. The next chance we will get to see McMillan in action is next Saturday afternoon against the Houston Texans.
