Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is off to a great start to the 2026 season.
Bowers has notched a pair of 100-yard games over three contests and has 24 catches for 312 yards and three scores going into Week 6.
However, Bowers has been nowhere to be found on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills.
Here's a closer look at what's going on.
Is Brock Bowers playing today?
Yes, Bowers is active, healthy and on the field, but he has not been targeted through one half of play.
Kirk Cousins has connected with four different pass-catchers, and he has even hit Michael Mayer for five completions, yet nothing has gone Bowers' way.
It's perplexing to see this going on, as you'd figure the Raiders would find a way to at least get him one reception through two quarters.
The Bills must be selling out to stop Bowers and are forcing the Raiders to beat them through the air with the rest of their lackluster cast.
