He made his first start for Rovers on 12 September 2017 in the club's 1–0 win over Scunthorpe. He received a red card for a professional foul in an FA Cup tie against Crewe Alexandra and then returned to West Brom in the New Year.[7]

In July 2019 he signed a new three-year contract with West Brom.[8]
