Overview
- Bowers was a full participant in practice on Oct. 29 and said he is "ready to roll" for Week 9, with coach Pete Carroll saying the tight end looks full speed and "back."
- The All-Pro suffered a left-knee PCL sprain and bone bruise in Week 1, tried to play through it, then was shut down for three games to prioritize recovery.
- Offensive coordinator Chip Kelly said the staff will ease Bowers into game action rather than hand him a heavy snap count immediately.
- Las Vegas’ passing attack slumped during his absence, including roughly 139 passing yards per game over the recent stretch and bottom-tier league rankings.
- Edge rusher Maxx Crosby and defensive tackle Adam Butler missed Wednesday’s practice with back issues but are expected to play, and wideout Jakobi Meyers is also trending toward a return.
