Brock Bowers Practices Fully as Raiders Target Week 9 vs. Jaguars

Pete Carroll says the tight end is practicing at full speed following his early‑season knee sprain.

Overview

  • Ari Meirov reported Bowers was a full participant in the Oct. 29 practice, and Pete Carroll said he is practicing at full speed and is "thrilled to have him back."
  • The full practice and coach’s update position Bowers to potentially play in Week 9 against Jacksonville, pending evaluations through the week.
  • Bowers injured his PCL in Week 1, tried playing through it with a brace, and was later held out to recover with rest rather than surgery.
  • Jaguars coach Liam Coen said Las Vegas moves Bowers all over the formation and stressed the need to track him at multiple alignments.
  • Las Vegas signed veteran wide receiver Tyler Lockett on Oct. 27, with Carroll noting quick integration is a lot to ask just one week before a possible debut.
