Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers shattered two significant rookie records in a single game, first surpassing Mike Ditka’s long-standing record for the most receiving yards in a season by a rookie tight end. With a 13-yard catch late in the second quarter, Bowers collected 1,105 receiving yards at halftime, eclipsing Ditka's 63-year-old record of 1,076 yards that had been in place since 1961.
Bowers' remarkable performance didn't stop with just yards; in the second half of the game, he caught his fifth pass for an 11-yard gain, raising his total to 106 catches for the season. This achievement not only broke Ditka's record but also established a new mark for the most catches in a season by any rookie, surpassing La'Kisha Nacua's record of 105 catches from last season.
