Raiders Making Effort to Promote TE Brock Bowers’ Name for the OROY Award With Special Merchandise

There’s no doubt that Bo Nix and Jayden Daniels have been the two best rookie QBs this season. They are rightfully leading the Offensive Rookie of the Year award, but one player who is missing from the conversation is Raiders rookie TE Brock Bowers.

In his debut campaign, the Raiders star set the records for the most catches and yards in a season by a rookie TE. Despite these stats, Bowers is not the bookmakers’ favorite to win the OROY award. As a result, Raiders fans have taken matters into their own hands, promoting the Brock Bowers OROY campaign through social media.

They are creating unique custom merchandise featuring the phrase, “Why Not Brock?” and the hashtag #BrockForOROY. Since Brock’s unexpected breakout has been the highlight of the Raiders’ season so far, fans are eager to end the campaign on a positive note by guaranteeing his win.

Interestingly enough, the Brock Bowers OROY campaign was met with mixed responses from Raiders fans. A lot of them expressed pessimism towards the campaign’s efforts, believing that Bowers could not overcome the QB bias and win the award.

The optimistic fans, on the other hand, wholeheartedly supported the campaign. They were urging fellow Raiders fans to wear the gear against the Chargers on Sunday.

It’s heartening to see the Raiders fans rally behind Brock for the award. At 22, his ability to thrive under pressure shows not only his individual talent but also points to a bright future for both himself and the Raiders.
