2nd year wide receiver missed past 4 games
The Raiders are getting healthier at receiver with Jack Bech's return to practice
Adds: Jack Bech. Drops: Justin Fields
Tucker’s inconsistent play keeps him a bench option, while injuries open a target window that may not translate into a reliable fantasy start
Michael Mayer has flex appeal in Week 5 despite Brock Bowers' dominance
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers appears ready to play and will be busy yet again in Week 5 as the Silver and Black face the Patriots in New England. The star TE was limited in practice on Wednesday but returned to full stats later in the week, just in time for him to dominate the target share from Kirk Cousins in Foxborough. Bowers had six receptions for 86 yards and one touchdown in a 30-27 Week 4 loss against the Chiefs, bringing him to 16 receptions for 202 yards and two TDs through his first two games of the season. New England has a strong passing defense, and Cousins clearly prefers targeting Bowers over top receiver Tre Tucker. Plus, the receiving corps is banged up, with Jalen Nailor (concussion) ruled out for Sunday and Jack Bech (forearm) not ready to return. Bowers is a must-start in Week 5, even against a tough Patriots defense
Mayer's limited targets keep him from being a game‑changer this week
Raiders receiver Cody White has three receptions this year
Raiders receiver Cody White has three receptions this year. All three have gone for touchdowns in the last two weeks. Now he’ll get to see if he can keep that going, as White has been signed to Las Vegas’ 53-man roster. Having been on the practice squad, White was out of elevations. He has been on the field for 56 percent of special teams snaps and 16 percent of offensive snaps so far this season. White, 27, has appeared in 33 career games since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2020. As a corresponding move, the Raiders have placed receiver Jack Bech on injured reserve. He suffered a fractured forearm during Sunday’s victory over the Saints. Additionally, the team added receiver Phillip Dorsett to the practice squad and released receiver Justin Shorter from the practice squad

When the Raiders face the Saints on Sunday in the Superdome, the game will have significant meaning for Las Vegas receiver Jack Bech
When the Raiders face the Saints on Sunday in the Superdome, the game will have significant meaning for Las Vegas receiver Jack Bech. Bech’s brother, Tiger, was killed in a New Orleans terrorist attack on New Year’s Day in 2025, along with 13 others. “I just want to rewrite this wrong in New Orleans,” Bech told Sam Warren of The Athletic earlier this week. “Get that nasty, dirty taste out of our mouth.” It will be Jack Bech’s first NFL game in New Orleans, the city to which his family would travel to watch Saints games when he and Tiger were growing up. Jack Bech has been fueled by his brother’s memory. And their childhood memories include attending games at the Superdome and dreaming of playing there one day. Bech said that it “would mean everything” to Tiger to see Jack achieve that dream. “I know he couldn’t be any happier right now,” Bech said. A second-round pick of the Raiders in 2025, Bech has caught five passes for 48 yards and a touchdown in two 2026 games. As the Raiders try to move to a surprising 3-0 record (after going 3-14 last year), Jack Bech will be ready to make an impact. The challenge will be to control and direct the emotions he’ll be feeling. Receiver coach Zach Azzani has been helping Bech find the right balance. “He said, ‘Play the game with emotions; don’t be emotional,’” Bech told Warren. “It’s something that’s been super helpful for me. . . Give it everything, leave everything on that field and see what happens by the end of the game.” Whatever happens, Jack Bech will surely be feeling the presence of his brother in a building where they enjoyed watching Saints games as boys

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 21-of-30 passes for 160 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions in the team's Week 1 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Cousins did not light up the scoreboard with his passing yardage but he did find Jack Bech on a touchdown pass and found Ashton Jeanty on two touchdown strikes. The two interceptions are worrisome for fantasy managers as you never like to see that from your quarterback. Cousins should continue to get better as the season progresses and the team welcomes back tight end Brock Bowers to the lineup. He will have to continue to hold off backup Fernando Mendoza as the season progresses, but he could nonetheless be a help to fantasy teams early in the season
Ashton Jeanty had his third career 100-yard game and accounted for 147 yards in the Raiders’ 27-13 victory over the Dolphins on Sunday. The 2025 first-round pick had 138 rushing yards against the Bears in his fourth game last season and 188 total yards against the Texans on Dec. 21. He scored twice against the Dolphins, catching two 13-yard Kirk Cousins’ passes for touchdowns. Cousins, with No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza waiting in the wings behind him, went 21-of-30 for 160 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. His first touchdown went to Jack Bech and covered 15 yards. The Raiders defense held the Dolphins to 259 yards, sacked Malik Willis five times and forced two turnovers. Linebacker Nakobe Dean had six tackles, a sack and two tackles for loss; defensive end Kwity Paye had six tackles, two sacks and four quarterback hits; rookie safety Treydan Stukes had two tackles and an interception; and defensive end Maxx Crosby had two tackles and 1.5 sacks. Dolphins running back De’Von Achane gained only 36 yards on 11 carries and caught four passes for 30 yards. Willis kept it interesting by going 15-of-27 for 220 yards and an interception. He also had six carries for a team-leading 39 yards. Rookie Caleb Douglas caught five passes for 94 yards
