Brock Bowers has been nominated for NFL Rookie of the Week following another impressive showing in Week 7's matchup.
The No. 13 pick recorded a game-high 10 catches and 93 receiving yards in the Raiders' 20-15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He was tied for the most receptions of any player in Week 7 and currently ranks second in the NFL in that same category (47). Additionally, he holds the highest grade offensive grade (88.3) of any tight end by Pro Football Focus.
With his performance, he became the first rookie tight end in NFL history with 8+ catches in three straight games and now holds the franchise record for most receptions and receiving yards in a player's first seven career games.
"He's just consistently showing up when we need him," Antonio Pierce said postgame. "Obviously, you see we're trying to feature him and get him going. He's doing the best he can and does a lot of good things for us."
Bowers is nominated alongside Drake Maye (New England Patriots), Bo Nix (Denver Broncos), Keon Coleman (Buffalo Bills), Brian Thomas Jr. (Jacksonville Jaguars) and Beanie Bishop Jr. (Pittsburgh Steelers).
