Brock Bowers Dynasty Value

Raiders TE Brock Bowers (knee) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Jaguars. He’ll play for the first time since Week 4. Bowers said Wednesday that he’s only “closer” to 100% now, although HC Pete Carroll raved about how he looked in practice this week. Bowers sits a bit lower than usual in the Week 9 TE rankings but remains a strong fantasy start.

Raiders TE Brock Bowers (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. "The first part of the season was tough [and] not feeling 100%," Bowers said. "But I'm closer now." It's noteworthy that Bowers only said he's "closer" to 100%. The PCL and bone bruise in his left knee might not fully heal until the offseason. That said, an active Bowers would be nearly impossible to leave out of fantasy lineups. He returns for a plus matchup against the Jaguars' 26th-ranked TE defense.
