Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders 2024 draft class fared Sunday in 25-24 home loss to the Chicago Bears and what it means heading into Sunday’s road game against the Indianapolis Colts:
Brock Bowers:
Bowers played had five catches for 46 yards. It was his highest yardage total since he had 103 yards in Week 1. He’s been targeted 27 times this season. He has 19 catches for 225 yards. He has 122 receiving yards in the past three games total. He didn’t have a three-game stretch with that few yards as a rookie. Of course, Bowers has bene dealing with a knee injury since Week 1 and it is clearly slowing him down/. He was off the injury report last week, so perhaps he is close to getting to full strength.
Jackson Powers-Johnson:
The second-round pick started at guard for the first time since Week 1. he had a strong game and was a big reason why the offensive line bounced back. He blocked well in he run game and didn’t give up any pressures. If he can stabilize, it will go a long way to helping the entire offensive line.
D.J. Glaze:
The third-round pick bounced back with a solid game after struggling at right tackle in Week 3 at Washington.
Decamarion Richardson:
The fourth-round pick was inactive with a hamstring injury for the second straight game. He may have a chance to play at Indianapolis.
Tommy Eichenberg:
The fifth-round pick from Ohio State played no snaps at linebacker for the third straight game after playing 14 snaps in Week 1 due to injury. Eichenberg played a season-low 80 percent of the special teams snaps against the Bears after playing a season-high 93 percent in Week 3.
Dylan Laube:
The sixth-round pick was the No. 3 running back didn’t play any offensive snaps in Week 4a after playing a total of 19 in the past two games. He did have three kick returns for 91 yards, including two nice returns.
Jonah Laulu:
Laulu, claimed last year off waivers from Indianapolis, played season-high 70 percent of the defensive snaps a week after he played a season-high 62 percent of the snaps. He’s becoming a staple. He did, though, lose the battle on the game-deciding blocked field goal on special teams.
