plus before Bowden was pressed into QB duties, he lead the team in catches, rec. yards and rec TDs. He is a natural pass catcher. And the bulldog in him makes him a perfect candidate to do the dirty work from the slot. As an added bonus, he can take jet sweeps and even throw the ball.
That's fine with Bowden being a natural pass catcher. I've just been really impressed from what I've seen of him and his versatility that I've been asking, are there ways to get him on the field beyond a traditional slot WR.
As a QB, he ran a lot on designed running plays. PFF had a metric on him that said his forced missed tackle rate was absurd. They said he had more broken tackles on designed running plays than D'andre Swift did this year. I don't recall ever seeing a QB or WR doing that better than RBs before.
