STILLWATER — During bowl practice last season, Rashod Owens said he got some reps at running back just incase the injury-riddled Cowboys needed him.
An inconsistent position has been a consistent theme of Owens’ time in Stillwater with his most recent move seeing him play the Z receiver spot in Oklahoma State’s 29-21 win against Kansas State on Friday night. Owens’ move was forced by a wrist injury sidelining De’Zhaun Stribling for the rest of the season.
Owens finished Friday’s win with a career-high five receptions and 75 receiving yards — not bad for a player who played Cowboy back (a position that doesn’t even exist any more) last season.
