Overview

• ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Bowers, listed as doubtful after a limited Friday practice, is not expected to play in Week 7 at Kansas City.
• Schefter adds Bowers has a good chance to return after Las Vegas' Week 8 bye, aligning with a Week 9 timeline.
• The tight end has been managing a left-knee PCL sprain with a deep bone bruise suffered in Week 1 and initially played through the injury before being sidelined.
• Michael Mayer continues as TE1 during Bowers' absence, which would reach three straight games if he sits Sunday.
• WR Jakobi Meyers is questionable with knee and toe injuries and will have a pregame workout to determine availability.
