  Patriots | Lynn Bowden joins New England's practice squad    Thu Sep 1, 01:17 PM

Free-agent WR Lynn Bowden (Dolphins) was added to the practice squad of the New England Patriots on Thursday, Sept. 1.

Footballguys view: Bowden is the type of player the Patriots can use. He's listed as a wide receiver, but Bowden can also play running back and gadget quarterback if need be. He may never develop as hoped, but the Patriots are a team who knows what to do with a versatile skill set like Bowden has.

  Dolphins | Hamstring still bugging Lynn Bowden    Wed May 25, 09:34 PM

Miami Dolphins WR Lynn Bowden (hamstring) isn't participating in OTAs due to a hamstring injury.

Footballguys view: Bowden is an interesting player for the way things have (or haven't) worked out for him in the NFL. A versatile player and third-round pick out of Kentucky in the 2020 NFL draft, Bowden barely made it out of training camp with the Raiders before being shipped to the Dolphins. In Miami, Bowden played in 10 games as a rookie but missed all of the 2021 season due to a hamstring injury. It's not a great sign that he's got another hamstring ailment.

Updating a previous report, Miami Dolphins WR Lynn Bowden (hamstring) suffered a strained hamstring during practice Thursday, Aug. 19, according to a source.

  Dolphins | Miami roughed up in finale at Buffalo    Sun Jan 3, 05:11 PM

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 35-of-58 passes for 361 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions while running for 28 yards in a 56-26 loss at Buffalo in Week 17. RB Salvon Ahmed led the way on the ground with 29 yards and a touchdown, while RB Myles Gaskin had 20 rushing yards on seven attempts with a score. WR DeVante Parker topped the charts with seven grabs for a game-high 116 yards on 14 targets, while Gaskin had 57 receiving yards. TE Mike Gesicki added five catches for 47 yards on his 10 targets, while WR Lynn Bowden Jr. registered 44 yards on eight snags with 12 targets. WR Malcolm Perry also found the end zone with a 25-yard score on his only catch. LB Andrew Van Ginkel led the defense with five solo stops, a sack, three tackles for loss, a pass defensed and a quarterback hit.

Footballguys view: At the beginning of the season, making the playoffs seemed like a worthy but likely unreachable goal for the Dolphins. They were one win from making it this year, but certainly will have a playoffs or bust approach next season. Tagovailoa didn't exactly impress despite a good win-loss record and the Dolphins should at least do their due diligence on the draft quarterbacks since they are holding the #3 pick thanks to Houston and the Laremy Tunsil trade.

Miami Dolphins WR Lynn Bowden Jr. hauled in seven receptions for 82 yards on nine targets in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins lost both of their starting receivers, so Bowden got a lot of action in the passing game. He also gets the ball in his hands as a passer on some trick plays with some experience as a quarterback in college, so he could be a good pickup heading into a matchup with New England.

  Dolphins | Lynn Bowden activated    Thu Nov 12, 11:30 AM

Miami Dolphins RB/WR Lynn Bowden was activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Nov. 12.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins backfield is a bit of a jumbled mess right now. Bowden is athletic and versatile in his skill set as a runner or receiver -- from the slot or out of the backfield. We'll see if he can work his way into the mix, but mainly we'll just keep an eye on him in dynasty formats.

  Dolphins | Miami trades for Lynn Bowden Jr.    Sat Sep 5, 03:38 PM

RB Lynn Bowden Jr. on Saturday, Sept. 5, and a sixth-round draft pick were acquired by the Miami Dolphins in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders. In exchange, the Dolphins are sending a fourth-round draft pick to the Raiders.

Footballguys view: Bowden was a college quarterback and wide receiver at Kentucky yet the Raiders wanted him to play running back. He didn't flash in camp and now has a new team. The Dolphins have declared him a wide receiver and OC Chan Gailey should be able to find a way to get some versatility out of him....remember it was Gailey who introduced 'Slash' (Steelers QB Kordell Stewart) to the league back in the day. Bowden could be a gadget player for him in 2020.

  Raiders | Lynn Bowden taking notes at QB, RB    Tue Aug 4, 02:26 PM

Las Vegas Raiders RB Lynn Bowden has reportedly spent some time learning the quarterback position in addition to spending the bulk of his time in the running back room, according to comments made by offensive coordinator Greg Olson.

Footballguys view: Bowden was one of the most versatile players in the 2020 NFL draft. He can play quarterback, running back or wide receiver. He's going to play running back for the Raiders but his best role, especially as a rookie, is as a receiving option out of the backfield (or perhaps from the slot).

  Raiders | Lynn Bowden signs rookie deal    Sat Jul 25, 04:11 PM

Las Vegas Raiders third-round draft choice RB Lynn Bowden signed a four-year contract with the Raiders Saturday, July 25. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Bowden is one of the most versatile players in the 2020 NFL draft. He was a wide receiver/running back/quarterback in college at Kentucky and can play a variety of roles for the Raiders. Bowden is not polished as a route runner but is dangerous with the rock in his hands. He could get a few carries behind Josh Jacobs here and there.

Kentucky WR Lynn Bowden was selected by the Las Vegas Raiders with the 80th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft Friday, April 24.

Footballguys view: Bowden is a slippery slot receiver who can also make plays as a zone-read quarterback. The Raiders could use him as a gadget player near the end zone. Bowden is strong at the catch point and will fight for yards after the catch.

  NFL | Lynn Bowden declares for draft    Mon Jan 6, 12:37 PM

University of Kentucky QB/WR Lynn Bowden announced his intention to enter the 2020 NFL Draft via social media prior to the team's Belk Bowl game on Dec. 31.

Footballguys view: Bowden began his final season at Kentucky as a wide receiver but when injuries decimated the position he ended up at quarterback. Playing seven games at quarterback for the Wildcats, Bowden showed his incredible athleticism and versatility. We'll see how he tests at the Scouting Combine later this year, but Bowden should put on a show. Bowden is considered a late second- or early third-round pick by some in the scouting community.
