He scored his first goal for Newport on 10 December 2016 in a League Two match against Morecambe but the match was abandoned at half-time due to a waterlogged pitch with Newport leading 1–0 so the goal was struck from the records. Owen-Evans scored his first recorded goal in a 1–0 League Two win against Exeter City on 8 April 2017. Owen-Evans was part of the Newport squad that completed the 'Great Escape' with a 2–1 victory at home to Notts County on the final day of the 2016–17 season, which ensured Newport's survival in League Two. On 11 May 2017 Owen-Evans signed a new two-year contract with Newport County. On 28 February 2018 Owen-Evans joined Truro City on loan until the end of the 2017–18 season.
