Being on a record pace not just for tight ends but for a rookie at any positions tends to garner some attention. And Brock Bowers has earned some notoriety of late, including, as of Thursday being announced as the NFL’s Offensive Rookie of the Month for November.
The 13th overall pick put up some monster numbers in November with 32 catches for 349 yards and three touchdowns over four games inside the month.
He set two new career highs in the month, first against Miami when he had the third most catches in a game in franchise history (13) for 126 yards and a touchdown. Then he finished the month strong in a hostile environment in Kansas City when he posted a new career-high with 140 yards on ten catches and a touchdown.
Even before this past month, Bowers was on an historic pace that put him among the greatest tight ends in NFL history.
His consistent ability to get open, make tough catches, and get yards after the catch had head coach Antonio Pierce removing all comparisons from his uniquely talented rookie offensive weapon.
