Kubiak is using Bowers similarly to what he did with Jaxon Smith-Njigba in Seattle last year... despite being labeled as a "tight end", the "football robot from heaven" has only been in-line on 13.6% of his pass snaps, per Pro Football Focus.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Bowers deployed like JSN in Seattle; only 13.6% in-line snaps despite TE label.

Kubiak is deploying Bowers similarly to how he used Jaxon Smith-Njigba in Seattle, lining him up all over the offense to create favorable matchups. Despite being labeled a tight end, Bowers has been in-line on only 13.6% of his pass snaps per Pro Football Focus, functioning more as a slot/split-out receiver. Bowers is constantly at different alignments and has only played two games under Kubiak so far, suggesting increased usage diversity ahead.
