Lynn Bowden Jr.
WR -
Week 18 Outlook
Availability
Lynn Bowden Jr. caught 4-of-4 targets for 24 yards in the Saints’ 28-6 win over the Panthers.
Fantasy Impact
Bowden’s four targets Sunday are the most he has seen in any game this season. The 26-year-old is a minor part in the Saints’ passing attack and can safely be left on the waiver wire for now.
Lynn Bowden Jr. carried the ball twice for a loss of six yards while also hauling in his lone target for five yards in the Saints' 33-28 loss to the Detroit Lions in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact
Bowden Jr. has failed to make much of an impact on the field of late, finishing with two or less touches in each of his last five games for the Saints. Fantasy managers are best served leaving the 26-year-old off rosters in all formats even with a solid matchup against the hapless Carolina Panthers in Week 14 up next.
Lynn Bowden is officially inactive for New Orleans Week 2 matchup against Carolina.
Fantasy Impact
Bowden will sit for this weeks matchup against Carolina as teammates Rashid Shaheed and Keith Kirkwood should see increased roles.
Lynn Bowden Jr. has been released by the New Orleans Saints.
Fantasy Impact
There was some optimism that Bowden could compete for a roster spot, but he didn't get one and will be released by the team. He will become a free agent and is eligible to sign anywhere at any point in the season.
Lynn Bowden Jr. signed with the Saints on Thursday. The free-agent wideout spent time with the Patriots practice squad after being released by the Miami Dolphins.
Fantasy Impact
Bowden was used by the Dolphins in both the rushing and receiving game, albeit with limited usage. He has yet to find a long-term home, as joining the Saints marks his fourth team in three seasons. He’ll look to establish himself and earn a role in New Orleans.
