Bowden has officially entered free agency and is now free to sign with any team, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Bowden was originally an exclusive-rights free agent but is now set to hit the open market after the Saints declined to tender him. The 2020 third-round pick will look to catch on with another team after hauling in 11 of his 16 targets for 83 yards in 15 games with the Saints last season.

Bowden has officially entered free agency and is now free to sign with any team, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Bowden was originally an exclusive-rights free agent but is now set to hit the open market after the Saints declined to tender him. The 2020 third-round pick will look to catch on with another team after hauling in 11 of his 16 targets for 83 yards in 15 games with the Saints last season.
Bowden will become an unrestricted free agent after the Saints informed him Sunday that he won't be tendered a contract for 2024, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Bowden had been an exclusive-rights free agent, but because bringing him back would have cost New Orleans around $3 million for 2024, the Saints are letting the depth receiver explore his options on the open market. New Orleans benefited from the versatility that Bowden offered as a pass catcher, rusher, returner and blocker over his 15 appearances in 2024, so it wouldn't be surprising if the organization looked to re-sign him at a lower rate, provided he doesn't draw a more lucrative offer from another club.
