Brock Bowers has been recognized as the NFL's premier tight end heading into the 2026 season, according to a recent poll of league personnel. While the Las Vegas Raiders experienced a difficult 2025 season, this did not impact the perception of Bowers' talent.
Bowers' rookie season in 2024 saw him set new NFL records for a first-year tight end. Although his 2025 statistics were reduced due to offensive struggles and injuries, evaluators believe his core skills remain elite.
Trey McBride of the Arizona Cardinals ranked second, lauded for his ball skills and overall athleticism. George Kittle, despite recent injury concerns and age, secured the third spot due to his versatile dominance when healthy.
Other notable tight ends include Tucker Kraft and Colston Loveland, whose potential contributions were acknowledged. Travis Kelce, entering his 14th season, still earned a spot in the top 10, praised for adapting his game effectively.
