He has continued to improve with each year that has passed and in 2026, he has the second-most receiving yards per game among any tight end in a single season. The Raiders ace is averaging 94.0, which is just shy of Travis Kelce’s 94.4 in 2020.
Now, while speaking on the Up & Adams show this week, Gronkowski has said that Bowers is going to be one of the biggest stars in the NFL.
He stated: “It’s impressive. I mean, this guy Brock Bowers is going to be one of the biggest stars in the NFL over the next few years. He really is. And just the way that he can control his body and the way that he can go up and make the contested catches, that’s what makes him great as well.
“And the way he can run routes, they’re so crisp and so clean that it’s hard to determine where he’s going on the field. And to have that size as well, so he can box out little guys, he can run by linebackers. It’s hard to defend him.
“But yes, this just shows how good Brock Bowers is. That stat right there shows how productive he is. And if you need a guy to rely on, he comes through in all situations, whether it’s first down, second down or third down. That stat right there truly does show the power that he has to build around him.”
It remains to be seen how Bowers’ form will be impacted by the Raiders letting Kirk Cousins leave.
They are 4-5 for the season ahead of facing the 5-4 Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
