The Las Vegas Raiders have a new offensive coordinator in Chip Kelly who inherits an offense with a handful of young talented players, including tight ends Brock Bowers and Michael Mayer.
When the Raiders selected Bowers during the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, a year after using a second-round pick on Mayer, the organization had visions of an offense that leaned heavily on 12 personnel and two productive tight ends.
