Dynasty Rookie Report Card: Brock Bowers and Tyrone Tracy Jr

Each week throughout the 2024 NFL season, I’ll cover two rookies in the Rookie Report Card and will generally write about the most prominent performers from that particular week. I’ll discuss how well he’s lived up to expectations at the NFL level and then grade the player in three categories: performance to date, rookie season potential, and long-term upside.

Brock Bowers, TE LV

Week 5 stats: Eight receptions on 12 targets for 97 yards and one touchdown.

With Davante Adams out of the lineup, Bowers scored his first career touchdown in week five. He's tallied 28 receptions on 36 targets for 313 yards so far, and it stands to reason that he'll be more involved as the season progresses, so expect those averages to tick up going forward. Bowers is already leading the Raiders in receptions and receiving yards and is tied for the team lead in targets. As is, if his averages hold up, he is going to first with 100 receptions and 1,000 yards, but as he transitions to the team's top option in the passing attack, he could easily blow past those numbers.
