Potential Los Angeles Chargers first-round pick, Georgia tight end Brock Bowers, had himself one heck of a Pro Day. NFL insider and reporter Albert Breer shared via X on Bower's performance.

Georgia TE Brock Bowers and OT Amarius Mims had their makeup Pro Day today. Bowers, at 241 pounds, looked explosive/moved well. Mims declined to weigh in. Both only did position drills—no testing for either.

Giants TEs coach Tim Kelly, Jets TEs coach Ron Middleton were on hand.

Today's Pro Day for Bowers is a makeup one because he missed the original one last month due to a hamstring injury.

Hamstring injuries can be tricky; however, they didn't seem to be a problem for the top tight end in this year's class. Bowers is among the top prospects in this year's draft and will likely be a top-ten pick. Only a short time ago, it felt like the Chargers were in play for Bowers; however, as the weeks go by, it feels like the Bolts will move in another direction.

Again, nothing is set in stone yet, but many of the latest mock drafts will say otherwise. The 21-year-old stands at 6-foot-3 and weighs 243 pounds. Bowers is undoubtedly the most highly-touted tight end since Kyle Pitts when he came out of Florida in 2021.

Many pundits and experts believe he will be a game-changer for any franchise he lands with. He has elite size, speed, and strength and has all the tools to be an impactful player for years to come. ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. called Bowers a "fear-factor player" and deserves to be a top-ten pick.

He'll certainly be in play for the Bolts if they keep the number-five pick.
