Raiders end losing streak with 38-33 win over Jets
The Dolphins picked up their first win of the 2026 season against the Jets at MetLife Stadium in Week 7 and the Raiders found it to be a hospitable place to play in Week 8. Kirk Cousins threw three touchdowns and ran for another as the Raiders ended their four-game losing streak with a 38-33 win over the Jets. The victory bumps their record to 4-4 ahead of a Week 9 trip to face the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium. Cousins’s third touchdown pass of the day went to Jalen Nailor with 11:33 left to play in the game and it put the Raiders up 35-30 after they trailed by nine points at halftime. They allowed the Jets to drive the ball to their 13, but their defense was able to come up with a stop that led to Jason Sanders’s fourth field goal of the day. Raiders running back Mike Washington ran for one first down and the Jets used all their timeouts before a Cousins sneak on third down gave them another one at the two minute warning. The Jets were able to stop the Raiders on the next third down and Matt Gay hit a 53-yard field goal with 27 seconds left to play. The Jets got the ball back and a penalty on a Garrett Wilson catch got them into Raiders territory, but Smith chucked one into the end zone from the 35-yard-line and it was picked off by Jeremy Chinn to the end the game. Sanders’s first two kicks also came on Jets drives that got the ball into the red zone and the failure to score touchdowns haunted the Jets a day after Halloween. They churned up 424 yards and scored on their first six possessions, but settling for field goals and a defense that lived down to Ashton Jeanty’s slam of them got them beat on Sunday. Jeanty was little more than a third-down back for the Raiders, but he did have a 45-yard catch to set up one touchdown. Washington ran 25 times for 83 yards and the Brock Bowers/Michael Mayer tight end combo had 12 catches for 145 yards. Two of Bowers’s catches went for touchdowns and Cousins was 19-of-26 for 247 yards on the afternoon. The Raiders scored on six of their nine full possessions and they also got a 95-yard kickoff return from Dylan Laube on their way to the win. The Jets’ defensive shortcomings crushed them on a day when Braelon Allen, Adonai Mitchell, and Garrett Wilson all had big days against an overmatched Raiders defense. There’s a lot to like about the amount of talent on the offensive side of the ball for the Jets, but Aaron Glenn’s defensive acumen is creating no reason to believe he’s the right man for the job. The Jets fell to 2-6 with the loss and they will be in Kansas City next Sunday

Raiders up 7-3 after Brock Bowers TD
The Jets couldn’t punch the ball into the end zone on their first drive of Sunday’s game against the Raiders, but their visitors from Las Vegas had more success. Kirk Cousins dropped a 12-yard pass into the hands of tight end Brock Bowers for a touchdown that put the road team up 7-3 with just over seven minutes to play in the first quarter. The drive covered 60 yards in just over five minutes. The Jets opened the game with a 31-yard pass to Garrett Wilson and then got back-to-back 15-yard runs by Braelon Allen to move inside the Raiders’ 5-yard-line, but a negative run and a pair of incompletions forced them to settle for a Jason Sanders field goal. Bowers also had a 23-yard catch on the Raiders’ opening drive and Jalen Nailor had a pair of catches for 24 yards

Brock Bowers - Scores twice in Week 8 win
sleeper-rotowire+40 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Bowers caught seven of 10 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-33 win over the Jets. Bowers scored a 12-yard touchdown in the first quarter and added a two-yard touchdown reception in the third quarter. He came just short of a third touchdown later in the third quarter, getting tackled just outside the goal line to set up a one-yard Kirk Cousins rushing TD. Bowers became the first tight end in NFL history to record at least 70 receiving yards in six consecutive appearances to begin a season. He'll try to extend his historic streak in Week 9 against the 49ers while continuing to work as the top target for Kirk Cousins

Brock Bowers - Full practice Thursday
sleeper-rotowire+40 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Bowers (calf) was a full practice participant Thursday. Bowers opened Week 8 prep with a limited session Wednesday due to a calf injury, but it didn't deter him from returning to all drills one day later. Since making his season debut in Week 3, he's gone for more than 70 receiving yards in all five of his appearances, sitting on a 34-455-3 line on 52 targets on the campaign

Brock Bowers - Limited by calf issue
sleeper-rotowire+40 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Bowers (calf) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Paul Gutierrez of the Raiders' official site reports. Bowers was listed with both hamstring and calf issues on the Raiders' Week 7 injury report, but he appears to have at least put the former injury behind him heading into a Week 8 matchup with the Jets. As long as he's able to make it through the Raiders' next two practices without incident, Bowers will likely head into the weekend without an injury designation

Rams get back in the win column with 35-21 victory over Raiders
After a particularly disappointing loss last week and a wave of injuries, the Rams got their groove back against the Raiders on Sunday. Los Angeles defeated Las Vegas 35-21 with a strong overall performance in the desert. The Rams were particularly effective on the ground, and the club would have rushed for over 200 yards if not for kneel-downs at the end of the game. Kyren Williams led the way with 99 yards on 16 carries with a touchdown, while Blake Corum had 93 yards on 17 carries with a TD. Matthew Stafford became the Rams’ all-time leader in touchdown passes with his three first-half scoring strikes on Sunday, surpassing Roman Gabriel. He finished the contest 23-of-29 passing for 195 yards with the three scores and an interception — a pass that went right off of Colby Parkinson’s hands and into the waiting arms of Nakobe Dean. Despite dealing with a calf injury, Puka Nacua caught eight passes for 68 yards with a touchdown while also rushing for 10 yards on two carries. Tight end Davis Allen caught Stanford’s other two touchdowns in the first half. L.A. punted on its first possession, but after that scored four straight touchdowns to take a 28-6 lead into halftime. Things got a little hairy for the Rams in the second half, with a Kyren Williams fumble and the interception preventing the team from scoring more. But after Kirk Cousins’ 15-yard touchdown pass to Ashton Jeanty narrowed the Rams’ lead to 28-18, L.A. put the game away with a 12-play, 70-yard drive that ended on Corum’s 4-yard touchdown run. Cousins finished the game 26-of-44 for 295 yards with two touchdowns. Tre Tucker caught five passes for 103 yards with a TD. Jeanty had just 15 yards rushing on eight carries, though he also had 61 yards receiving on eight catches. Brock Bowers finished with 73 yards on six catches. Now at 3-4, the Rams will be back at SoFi Stadium for a matchup against the cross-town Chargers in Week 8. After starting 3-0, the Raiders have now fallen to 3-4. They will be on the road to face the Jets next Sunday

Brock Bowers - Six catches in Week 7 loss
sleeper-rotowire+40 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Bowers secured six of eight targets for 73 yards in the Raiders' 35-21 loss to the Rams on Sunday. The ultra-talented tight end put together another solid performance, finishing second in receptions and receiving yards for the Raiders while also tying for runner-up status in targets. Bowers has at least 70 receiving yards in all five games, and he's recorded at least six catches in four of those contests. Bowers will undoubtedly remain a critical part of the air attack in a Week 8 road matchup against the Jets next Sunday

Tre Tucker a Streaming Option in Week 7
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker just had one of his best games of the season, but can he keep that up for fantasy managers in Week 7? Tucker led the Raiders with five catches for 97 yards and two touchdowns in Week 6, outperforming tight end Brock Bowers for the first time this season. The fourth-year wideout has four or more receptions in five straight games, bringing him to 24 receptions for 371 yards on the season. However, Tucker has also proven to be inconsistent, and will now face a Rams defense that is allowing just 167 passing yards per game. Tucker hasn't shaken his boom-or-bust profile yet, but is a viable stream
