Bowden played collegiality at the University of Kentucky, where he played three seasons with the Wildcats from 2017 to 2019.
Last season, Bowden exploded on the scene by rushing for 1,468 yards on just 185 carries and scoring 13 rushing touchdowns. He also had 30 receptions for 348 yards and one touchdown.
Bowden, who is 22 years old and stands at 5-feet-11, should help add depth to the Dolphins’ ground game, which has been infused with additional new talent during the offseason.
