On 24 August 2016, Cowans joined Stevenage of EFL League Two on loan until January 2017.[2] Cowans was named on the bench for Stevenage on 27 August 2016 and given the number 23 shirt but did not start in a 5–2 away loss.[3] He made his professional debut in an EFL Trophy loss to Leyton Orient four days later.[4] On 9 January 2017, Cowans had his loan extended until the end of the season.[5]

Cowans was a regular for the under-18, under-21 and under-23 sides but never made a senior first team appearance and was released in June 2017.[6]

Telford

[edit]

On 4 September 2017 Cowans joined Telford United of the National League North.[7] He made 31 total appearances over the season, and scored his first senior goal on 11 November in a 3–1 loss at F.C. United of Manchester.[8]
