Josh Bowling is a physical, productive linebacker with early college traction
In the 2024 season, Bowling played in all 12 games for Morehead State and posted 22 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, a sack, a pass breakup, and a fumble recovery, showing the kind of all-around linebacker value coaches like to plug into a defense[4]. At 6-3 and 230 pounds, he brings size and contact ability, and his high-school profile suggested strong instincts, quick reactions, and reliable open-field tackling[2][5]. He looks like a fit for a team wanting a tough, assignment-sound LB who can help in run support and make occasional impact plays, not just rack up empty tackles[4][5].
