Brock Bowers Expected to Miss Games After Knee Surgery
x/las-vegas-raiders
— Sep 9, 2026
Raiders tight end Brock Bowers underwent a meniscus trim and is expected to miss one or two games to start the season, including Week 1 against the Dolphins, with Michael Mayer likely stepping in at tight end. His absence could stretch into Week 2 against the Chargers, leaving the Raiders without their top pass-catching weapon early in 2026.

Bowers missing the opener hurts but a quick meniscus trim usually means a fast return, so Mayer has his chance to shine early.

x/united-states-trademark-law
— Sep 10, 2026
Initial unemployment claims edged down to 206,000 for the week ending Sept. 5, with continuing claims around 1.774 million and four‑week averages near 206,000 and 1.779 million, indicating the U.S. labor market remains at historically low levels.

Raiders Sign Michael Mayer to $45M Extension
x/michael-mayer
— 6d
The Las Vegas Raiders have extended tight end Michael Mayer for three years at $45 million with $30 million guaranteed, making him one of the highest-paid at the position and setting him up for expanded duties as Brock Bowers deals with a knee issue that will sideline him early. The move comes alongside ongoing concerns about Bowers’ durability, with Mayer expected to step in for Week 1 and serve as a key security blanket for the Raiders’ developing offense.

Mayer's extension looks like solid insurance with Bowers banged up, but 30 million guaranteed feels steep for a backup role.

Vice President JD Vance maintains that the Iran conflict is not a war, noting there is no active shooting and that major combat lasted only six weeks, even as Iran and the US continue limited strikes and exchanges near the Strait of Hormuz. He refuses to offer a timeline for ending the conflict, placing the onus on Iran to stop the hostilities while the US sustains military operations and casualties escalate.

Florida wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr. left the season opener with an ankle injury and is listed as highly questionable for Week 2 against Campbell, with coach Jon Sumrall saying development will come midweek; Emmanuel Oyebadejo is also questionable with a similar issue, while Evan Pryor’s hip already limited him. In Singleton’s absence, Florida leaned on Bailey Stockton and TJ Abrams Jr. to produce in a dominant 66-21 win as they seek to get Singleton back soon after he entered with an FBS-leading 37-game receiving streak that ended with zero targets in the opener.
