Luke Musgrave Not Projected for a Heavy Playoff Impact

Friday, January 9, 2:12 PM

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave has not scored double-digit fantasy points in any game this season, failing to register a single reception in four different games, including Weeks 17 and 18. Musgrave was a popular waiver wire add following Tucker Kraft's (knee) season-ending injury in Week 9, but he failed to capitalize on the expanded role, and he should be viewed as an afterthought in most fantasy playoff formats. Musgrave finished the 2026 season with 24 catches for 252 yards and no touchdowns, and he is RotoBaller's TE12 for a Wild Card Weekend that sees 12 teams in action.

Brock Bowers Placed on Injured Reserve Due to Lingering Knee Injury

Wednesday, December 24, 11:30 AM

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (knee) has been placed on Injured Reserve, ending his 2025 season, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. Pelissero notes that Bowers has been battling a lingering knee injury since Week 1, and the 2-13 Raiders are now focused on making sure their star tight end is fully healthy for 2026. Across 12 games this season, the 23-year-old recorded 64 receptions for 680 yards and seven touchdowns on 86 targets. With Bowers sidelined, Raiders tight end Michael Mayer is likely in line for a spike in both playing time and target share. Across a two-game stretch in Weeks 6 and 7 with Bowers inactive, Mayer recorded six catches for 60 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. For fantasy managers now left scrambling to fill the tight end position, Mayer could be a solid streamer in Week 17 against the New York Giants.
