Michael Mayer caught all three of his targets for 37 yards in the Raiders’ Week 9 loss to the 49ers.
Mayer was second on the team in pass routes behind Brock Bowers. He nearly had not one, but two touchdown catches on the day. Mayer had the ball knocked out of his hand as he reached for the goal line in the first half, and was called for pass interference on a short touchdown reception in the fourth quarter. It was a tough luck day for the Raiders’ TE2. With 15 receptions over the past three games coming into Week 9, Mayer is usable in deeper formats going forward. He gets the Seahawks in Week 10.
