Ramaud Chiaokhiao-Bowman turned in the best year of his career in 2020, but he was unable to translate that play into a selection during the 2021  NFL Draft.

The former three-star prospect out of Minneapolis finally found his stride during his senior year with the Wildcats. Working with quarterback Patrick Ramsey, Chiaokhiao-Bowman set career-high marks in every category while leading Northwestern with 41 catches for 508 yards and five touchdowns. He also averaged 12.4 yards per catch.

Though he went undrafted over the weekend, head coach Pat Fitzgerald announced that Chiaokhiao-Bowman was signing with the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent. Nothing is ever guaranteed in the NFL, especially for an undrafted player, but it sure sounds like Chiaokhiao-Bowman is going to make the most of his shot.

Chiaokhiao-Bowman finishes his Northwestern career with 82 career catches for 968 yards and six touchdowns. Hopefully, he is able to carve out a role while with the Colts, even if that means putting in work on the special teams unit.
