Hitting a record pace, not just as a tight end, but as a rookie at any position, tends to attract quite a bit of attention. And Brock Bowers has been gaining some notoriety lately, including being named the NFL's Offensive rookie of the Month for November on Thursday.
The 13th overall pick put up some monster numbers in November with 32 catches for 349 yards and three touchdowns in four games during the month.
He set two new career highs this month, first against Miami when he had the third-most catches in a game (13) for 126 yards and a touchdown. He then finished the month strong in a hostile environment in Kansas City, setting a new career high with 140 yards on 10 catches and a touchdown.
Even before this month, Bowers had already reached a historic pace that made him one of the best .
Head coach Antonio Pierce impressed with his consistent ability to get open, make tough catches and gain yards after the catch from his uniquely talented rookie offensive weapon.
