While the Las Vegas Raiders have been one of the worst teams in the league this season, rookie tight end Brock Bowers has been sensational for the offense and has recorded individual milestones in his first season.

Bowers is leading all tight ends in the league in most categories, making him one of the best all-around in his position this year. On Monday, the top vote-getters for the Pro Bowl were revealed, and Bowers was near the top of the tight end rankings.

The rookie is currently ranked second in Pro Bowl voting at tight end, only behind San Francisco 49ers George Kittle.

Bowers has been able to amount to 884 receiving yards, 84 catches, and four touchdowns this season. He was able to become the leader for the most receptions for a tight end in Raiders history through his first ten games, and is looking to make a case for the Offensive Rookie of the Year award.

Even with Las Vegas' struggles in the passing attack this year, Bowers has still been able to be one of the premier pass catchers in the NFL. With the team likely to secure a top-five pick in the 2025 NFL draft, the tight end's future is only looking better if the Raiders decide to draft their quarterback of the future.
