Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was labeled as a DNP on Wednesday for the team's first practice of the week. Bryant did not suit up for the Raiders' Week 11 outing against the Miami Dolphins, and it's the third time he was listed as a non-participant dating back to last Wednesday while battling through an ankle injury. Second-year tight end Michael Mayer returned to action against Miami after a lengthy absence and participated in 52% of Las Vegas' snaps, so it's likely that when Bryant is active, he'll be back to playing third fiddle in the TE room. Still, with standout rookie tight end Brock Bowers garnering 26.4% of the team's targets, Mayer and Bryant will just be vying for the scraps.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins. Bryant had not been listed on the injury report, and his absence is a direct result of Michael Mayer (personal) returning from an extended absence on Sunday. Even with Mayer taking Bryant's place on the gameday roster, Brock Bowers remains the only Raiders tight end worth starting in fantasy football.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Miami Dolphins. The fifth-year veteran kicked off the week tagged with a DNP but was able to log a limited session on Thursday before being downgraded again on Friday. Bryant has dealt with a few injuries this season and will now miss his second game of 2024. With teammate Michael Mayer (personal) deemed questionable, Las Vegas is in danger of being down two tight ends for the matchup. If Mayer cannot play, rookie sensation Brock Bowers would be slated for all the work he can handle, with Justin Shorter rotating in behind him. Shorter has appeared in three games this season but has yet to command a target on nine total snaps.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) was able to get through a limited practice session on Thursday. Bryant suffered an ankle injury during the Week 9 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He was off last week with the Raiders having a bye week. Bryant didn't practice to open the week, but returned as a limited participant on Thursday. He seems to have a decent chance at suiting up for the Week 11 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Bryant has seven receptions for 65 yards over his last three games, but doesn't have much fantasy value with Brock Bowers ahead of him on the depth chart.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) did not participate in practice on Wednesday. Bryant has filled a depth role in Las Vegas season, catching just nine passes for 86 yards through eight games. Although the 26-year-old has been serving as the backup to Brock Bowers recently, he'll drop down to No. 3 on the depth chart with the imminent return of Michael Mayer (personal). Between ranking third on the depth chart and battling a significant ankle issue, Bryant can be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Raiders initially listed him as questionable, but he ultimately did not return. At the time of his departure, he had caught each of his two targets for 22 yards through the air. Justin Shorter will step up as the backup tight end behind Brock Bowers for the duration of Bryant's absence.
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (elbow) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the wrong direction after missing three consecutive practices. Bryant hasn't been on the fantasy radar this year, but he has been playing well with five catches and 43 yards over the last two weeks. John Samuel Shenker, who is still searching for his first career target, will back up Brock Bowers in Week 8.
Former Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant reached an agreement with the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday on a one-year, $3.25 million deal with a maximum value of $4 million, according to a source. Bryant was a fourth-round selection by the Browns in 2020 out of Florida Atlantic. The 25-year-old hasn't been on the fantasy radar at all, really, totaling 89 catches on 128 targets for 791 yards and 10 total touchdowns in his four seasons in Cleveland. With the move to Vegas, he'll be expected to serve as the No. 2 tight end behind second-year man Michael Mayer now that Austin Hooper moved on in free agency. In 17 regular-season games (nine starts) for the Browns in 2023, Bryant had a career-low 13 receptions for 81 yards and three touchdowns while working behind David Njoku.
Harrison Bryant Could See Increased Role In Week 18
Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant could be in for a larger role in his team's Week 18 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Starter David Njoku (rest/knee/illness) missed practice on Wednesday but got in limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. The star tight end is listed without an injury designation heading into Week 18 but the Browns already have the No. 5 seed in the AFC locked up and are planning to rest several starters in what is a meaningless game for them. If Njoku doesn't end up playing, Bryant would see starter's snaps and settle in as a TE2 for the final week of the regular season against a Bengals team that is allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. He would also make for an interesting cheap option as a dart throw in DFS contests.
Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant caught all five of his targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in a 36-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13. Bryant hauled in a receiving touchdown for his second consecutive game when he came down with an eight-yard pass from Joe Flacco in the fourth quarter. Bryant saw extra playing time with the Browns dealing with injuries at wide receiver, including Amari Cooper (concussion). Look for Cleveland to run more two-tight end sets in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars if Cooper doesn't pass the league's concussion protocol in time.
