ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Brock Bowers (knee) is expected to play in Week 3 against the Saints, barring a surprise.

27 September 2026

Bowers will still need to test out his knee during pre-game warmups, but all signs point to him making his 2026 debut later today. The team heavily limited his workload during practice this week and could do so in his first game back from the late offseason meniscus trim. Still, if Bowers is active, fantasy managers have to get him in their lineups.
