Raiders' Klint Kubiak says Brock Bowers is 'a football robot from heaven,' Fernando Mendoza is 'as advertised'
Kubiak's tasked with jolting Las Vegas' offense, and he likes the weapons at his disposal.
Klint Kubiak answered questions Wednesday after his Las Vegas Raiders’ latest OTA. As reporters probed about the first-year head coach’s approach to this phase of the offseason, he responded tamely, occasionally dishing out the coachspeak that sounds like a broken record at this time of year. But inquiries about specific players resulted in more colorful commentary from Kubiak, who especially effused about tight end Brock Bowers.
In fact, Kubiak authored arguably the quote of the day when gushing about the 23-year-old. “He's kind of a football robot, in a good way,” Kubiak said. “He's a football robot from heaven.
” Kubiak continued: “He's a Cadillac out there. We got to get the most out of Brock. Wherever he goes, he's been successful — in college, in high school, whoever's coached him.
So just can't say enough great things about him. Love his work ethic. He's a standard-bearer.
