The Las Vegas Raiders placed Pro Bowl tight end Brock Bowers and safety Jeremy Chinn on the Reserve/Injured list, ending their seasons. NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Bowers will not return until 2026 as the team prioritizes his recovery from a lingering knee injury.

Despite the injury, Bowers posted historic numbers, recording 176 receptions, the most by a tight end through two NFL seasons. He also totaled 1,874 receiving yards, the third-most at the position over two seasons and 107 yards short of surpassing Mike Ditka’s record.

The Raiders added safety Terrell Edmunds to the active roster after eight NFL seasons with 465 tackles and six interceptions. Wide receiver Shedrick Jackson was promoted from the practice squad after playing three games this season and catching a 25-yard touchdown. The team also signed long snapper Luke Elkin and tackle Joshua Miles from the practice squad to fill roster needs for the remainder of the season.
