Hanis Bowens Brings Veteran Ball-Hawking DNA to Arkansas State
Hanis Bowens is a proven defensive back with a history of playmaking instincts, including a 1999 Arkansas State season in which he posted 58 tackles, 10 passes defended, and 2 interceptions, plus an honorable-mention postseason nod. He also flashed big-game value on special teams, highlighted by a blocked-field-goal return for 80 yards against North Carolina State in 2000. At 5-foot-9 and 162 pounds, he profiles as a feisty, quick-trigger defender whose edge, leverage, and nose for the football make him the kind of gritty, disruptive piece coaches love to deploy.
