OutMichael Mayer isn't expected to play — the read below describes past games only.

While McFadden describes the tight end's issue as a "busted nose," coach Klint Kubiak noted after Monday's practice that Mayer should be fine. That said, it's possible the 2023 second-rounder's practice participation will be impacted some by the issue in the short term. When healthy, Mayer is set to work behind star tight end Brock Bowers, but with the Raiders' WR corps a work in progress, the team's offense could feature frequent two-TE formations, a context that may result in a degree of fantasy utility for Mayer in deeper formats.

Tough

The read

Over his last 8 games, Michael Mayer has gone over 7.5 FS 4 of 8 decided times (50%) — versus 50% across the full season. KC has been a tough matchup for tight ends this season, allowing the 25th-most FS of 32 teams (5.6 per game). His game-to-game FS have been highly variable (σ ≈ 5.3), so short streaks can mislead. These are descriptive stats about past games, not predictions or betting advice.

Hit rate excludes pushes from the denominator. Confidence uses a 95% Wilson interval — a high recent rate on few games still reads as low confidence. Season over rate at this line: 50%.
