The Las Vegas Raiders have moved on from one of their three third-round draft picks before he even played a snap for the team.

The Raiders dealt the versatile Lynn Bowden Jr. to the Miami Dolphins just over four months after drafting him 80th overall.

Las Vegas also sent a 2021 sixth-round pick to Miami in the deal and got a fourth-rounder in return.

Bowden struggled to find a role as a backup running back during his first training camp and the Raiders decided to cut ties quickly in the biggest surprise when they reduced the roster to 53 players.
