He played at West Bloomfield High School in Michigan prior to attending Bowling Green. Broden, who will report to Fayetteville this week for the spring semester, has two seasons of eligibility remaining.

The Hogs also have landed mid-term transfer receivers Isaac TeSlaa, 6-4, 210 and Andrew Armstrong, 6-5, 200.
