Bowden got pressed into quarterback duty in 2019, but his future in the NFL is at wide receiver.

Before being forced under center due to an injury to Kentucky’s starting quarterback, Bowden caught 30 passes for 348 yards and a touchdown. At quarterback, he ran for 1,468 yards, 7.9 yards per carry and 13 touchdowns — a testament to what he can do with the ball in his hands.

It’s pretty simple. Get Bowden the ball in space and he will make a play more often than not. The Jets don’t have many guys like that, making Bowden a potentially attractive round three or four target.
