Fills in admirably for Bowers Mayer recorded nine receptions on 10 targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.

Impact The Raiders didn't get much going through the air, but Mayer was responsible for the majority of the limited production. He led the team in every receiving statistic and logged five receptions of at least 11 yards. This was easily Mayer's most productive game of the season -- which came in the absence of Brock Bowers (knee) -- and he should be a favorite target of Kenny Pickett in Week 18 against the Chiefs.

Impact Mayer has operated as the backup tight end for most of the season, though his best outing of the season -- five catches for 50 yards and a touchdown in a Week 6 win against the Titans -- came when Bowers was sidelined. With Bowers done for the year, Mayer will operate as the Raiders' top tight end in Week 17 and 18 while Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon provide depth at the position.

Earns three targets in loss Mayer caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

Impact Mayer has not caught more than one pass in a single contest since Week 11, though he played 36 of 54 offensive snaps for the Raiders on Sunday. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Brock Bowers paced the team with five receptions on as many targets for 33 yards and a score.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Non-factor against Eagles Mayer failed to record a single target in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Mayer was not involved in Raiders' passing attack Sunday, as the tight was held without a catch for the second time this season. The 24-year-old played just eight of the Raiders' 42 offensive snaps in the blowout loss, while starter Brock Bowers was on the field for 38 snaps. Barring an injury to Bowers, Mayer cannot be trusted for fantasy purposes. Next up for the Raiders is a Week 16 matchup against the Texans.

Logs full practice Thursday Mayer (ankle) practiced fully Thursday.

Impact Mayer, who has missed two straight games, was limited Wednesday, but the tight end's full participation Thursday paves the way for him to rejoin the Raiders' lineup Sunday against the Eagles. With a 22/182/1 receiving line (on 32 targets) in nine games, Mayer carries modest fantasy upside into Week 15 action in his complementary role working alongside fellow TE Brock Bowers, who leads the team in catches (53), targets (72), receiving yards (619) and receiving TDs (six).

DECEMBER 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to limited practice Mayer (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact Mayer, who sustained an ankle injury Week 12 against the Browns, had missed six consecutive practices and two straight games heading into Wednesday's session. The tight end's ability to participate, albeit in a limited fashion, has him trending in the right direction as Sunday's game against the Eagles approaches.

Out again in Week 14 Mayer (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Broncos.

Impact Mayer hasn't been able to practice since he sustained an ankle injury Week 12 against the Browns, and while he'll be absent for a second consecutive contest Sunday, coach Pete Carroll expressed optimism that the third-year pro will be able to return Week 15 at Philadelphia on Sunday, Dec. 14, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN.com. With Mayer sidelined again, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon will take on the TE reps that don't go to top option Brock Bowers.

DECEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Another missed practice Mayer (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.

Impact Mayer has now missed five straight practices, giving him one more opportunity to get some work in before the Raiders' Week 14 injury designations are assigned. If he remains out Sunday against the Broncos, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon will be candidates to log added snaps behind Las Vegas' top tight end Brock Bowers.

Misses another practice Mayer (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday.

Impact Mayer didn't practice last week before being ruled out for Sunday's loss to the Chargers. Another 'DNP' on Wednesday clouds the TE's Week 14 status, but Mayer's outlook for this weekend's game against the Broncos could improve if he returns to practice Thursday or Friday.
