2025 Fantasy Outlook
A rookie fourth-round pick out of Oklahoma, Bowman is a relentless ballhawk who was a safety in college. However, he projects as a slot corner in the NFL. Despite being undersized (5-foot-9, 192 pounds), Bowman was a four-year starter and eager as a run stopper, bordering on reckless at times. Bowman will have a stiff learning curve as a pro but could have a bright future. He'll operate behind Dee Alford to begin his rookie season. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $5.19 million contract with the Falcons in May of 2025.
Done for the season
Bowman sustained a torn Achilles in practice and will miss the remainder of the season, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie from Oklahoma was placed on the injured reserve list Saturday, and it has since been clarified that he won't return this season. Bowman had a productive first year while on the field, appearing in just six games but recording 26 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, two passes defended, with one interception, and one forced fumble. Expect Dee Alford to operate as Atlanta's top slot defender while Bowman is sidelined for the remainder of the year.
