Who Should I Start? Pharaoh Brown or Brock Bowers

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the Miami Dolphins have reached an agreement with former Seattle Seahawks tight end Pharaoh Brown on a one-year contract. The financial terms have not been disclosed. The 30-year-old will join his sixth NFL team since signing with the Las Vegas (Oakland) Raiders in 2016 as an undrafted free agent. Brown was the third-leading snap-getter for the Seahawks in 2024 (264), though it only amounted to eight receptions and 65 scoreless yards across 15 games. The Oregon product presents as a depth piece for Miami, as he'll likely compete for playing time with fellow tight end Julian Hill behind Jonnu Smith, who led the team in receptions a season ago.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is coming off his quietest game of the season in Week 10 versus the Denver Broncos, catching just one of his three targets for 31 yards. Bowers returned in Week 9 against the Jaguars after missing three games due to a knee injury, and produced the best game of his young career with 12 catches for 127 yards and three touchdowns on 13 targets. The superstar tight end should be expected to bounce back with a great matchup on deck in Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly took the blame for not getting Bowers more targets in their Week 10 loss, saying, "We have to get him more involved." Expect Bowers to be the focal point of the Raiders' game plan and go off in a matchup with the highest total of the week.
