    Brock Bowers is rewriting the NFL record books Sunday. The Las Vegas Raiders tight end now has the most receiving yards for a tight end in his rookie season in NFL history, breaking Mike Ditka’s 63-year old record for most receiving yards by a tight end in his rookie season in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints. 

    Bowers also passed Puka Nacua for the most receptions by a rookie in NFL history with 106 (Nacua had 105 last season).

    Bowers passed Ditka on a 13-yard catch in the second quarter. He entered Sunday’s game just 9 yards shy of Ditka’s mark of 1,076 (set in 1961) and is the third rookie tight end to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in a season, joining Ditka and Kyle Pitts (1,026 in 2021). 

    Bowers has set the Raiders record for most receptions in a single season, passing Darren Waller’s record-setting 107 grabs in 2020. The young star is eyeing Zach Ertz’s record of most receptions by a tight end in a season (116). He’s the first rookie tight end to amass 1,100 receiving yards in a season. 





    In a historic moment for the Las Vegas Raiders, rookie tight end Brock Bowers has surpassed wide receiver Puka Nacua for the NFL rookie receptions record. Bowers’ impressive performance on the field has not only solidified his place in the league but has also broken a 63-year-old record previously held by Hall of Famer Mike Ditka.

    The Raiders’ offense has been firing on all cylinders this season, and Bowers has been a key contributor to their success. His ability to find openings in the defense and make clutch catches has made him a favorite target for quarterback Derek Carr.

    With this record-breaking achievement, Bowers has proven that he is a force to be reckoned with in the NFL. Raiders fans can look forward to many more memorable moments from this talented rookie as he continues to make his mark on the league. Congratulations to Brock Bowers on this incredible accomplishment! #RaiderNation #NFLRecords #BrockBowers

  • Raiders’ Brock Bowers breaks Mike Ditka’s 63-year-old record for rookie TE receiving yards

    Raiders’ Brock Bowers breaks Mike Ditka’s 63-year-old record for rookie TE receiving yards


    When Ditka made history with the Chicago Bears, the Oakland Raiders were only in their second season as a member of the American Football League. Sixty-three years later, Bowers has etched his name in the record books for Las Vegas.

    What a season it’s been for Bowers, who just a week before became only the third rookie tight end to record 1,000 receiving yards, joining Ditka, of course, and the Atlanta Falcons’ Kyle Pitts (1,026, 2021), and the first to surpass 100 catches. Bowers had already surpassed the Detroit Lions’ Sam LaPorta for the TE rookie receptions record earlier in the campaign.

    Though the Raiders have been mired in a season overflowing with strife and struggle, Bowers has been sensational for the Silver and Black and provided optimism for the season ahead, along with history.

    Now he’s put his name above the legendary Ditka in the NFL record books.



    In a stunning display of talent and athleticism, Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers has shattered a record that has stood for over six decades. Bowers surpassed Hall of Famer Mike Ditka’s 63-year-old record for rookie tight end receiving yards in a single season.

    Ditka set the record back in 1961 with an impressive 1,076 receiving yards. But Bowers, in his first year in the league, has already surpassed that mark with several games still left to play in the season.

    The Raiders’ coaching staff and fans alike have been blown away by Bowers’ performance on the field. His speed, hands, and ability to create separation from defenders have made him a nightmare for opposing defenses to contain.

    Bowers’ record-breaking season is not only a testament to his talent but also a sign of the bright future ahead for the young tight end. Raiders fans can look forward to many more exciting moments from Brock Bowers in the years to come.
