Catches first TD of career Mayer caught three of five targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.
Impact Mayer appeared to be having another quiet game while sitting at two catches for 12 yards to begin the fourth quarter. That was before the 22-year-old hauled in the game's lone touchdown on a short reception in the final period to secure victory for the Raiders. The second-round rookie still finished below 20 receiving yards for the fourth straight week despite scoring his first touchdown on the year. Mayer's first score could generate some looks from managers in deeper formats on waivers this week, but his current small role on offense coupled with the lingering presence of veteran backup Austin Hooper (1-7-0) limits the rookie's potential heading into next Sunday's tilt against Miami.

One catch in Week 8 loss Mayer caught one of two targets for 19 yards in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.
Impact Mayer was one of four players that tied for second on the team in receiving yards behind Josh Jacobs' 27, as Jimmy Garoppolo (back) threw for only 126 yards in his return from a one-game absence. Fellow tight end Austin Hooper was among those four players, but Mayer has 133 receiving yards to Hooper's 49 in Garoppolo's last three starts. The rookie tight end let out some anger over Vegas' poor offensive performance with a huge hit on special teams, accounting for Mayer's first career tackle. Mayer and the rest of Vegas' passing game will look to get back on track in Week 9 against the Giants.

Earns four targets in loss Mayer caught two passes for 13 yards on four targets in Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Bears.
Impact He once again played ahead of Austin Hooper, as the rookie tight end out-snapped the eight-year veteran 46 to 22, but Mayer's volume was disappointing while wide receivers Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers saw a combined 25 targets from quarterbacks Brian Hoyer and Aidan O'Connell. Mayer will look to take better advantage of his recently expanded role against the Lions in Week 8, and he would likely benefit from the potential return of Jimmy Garoppolo (back) under center.

Leads LV with 75 yards Mayer brought in five of his six targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Patriots.
Impact Mayer followed up his career high 39 receiving yards from Week 5 by nearly doubling that mark in the win over New England. Part of the rookie's increased usage came as a response to the opposition focusing on star wideout Davante Adams (2-29-0) on Sunday, which opened up room for Mayer to operate in the middle of the field. The 2023 second round pick has garnered nine targets over his last two games after totaling two through the first four games of the season. Mayer is still on the lower end of the fantasy tight end spectrum, but that could change with another productive outing against the Bears next Sunday.
