He made his debut when he came on as a substitute in the Championship game at Plymouth Argyle on 19 August 2006. On 18 September 2008 he was loaned out to League Two side Chesterfield for a month. Boden made his debut in the Spireites' 1–2 defeat at Rochdale on 20 September 2008. He played four games for the Spireites before a short loan spell with Rushden & Diamonds. On 27 August 2009, Boden joined League Two side Northampton Town on a one-month loan deal.[3]

He signed a two-year contract with Orlando City of the USL Pro league on 23 February 2011,[5] and made his debut for his new team on 16 April as a second-half substitute in a game against the Charlotte Eagles.[6] Boden was released by Orlando at the end of the 2016 season, and subsequently signed with USL side Tampa Bay Rowdies on 6 January 2017.[7] Boden joined the Rollins Tars coaching staff ahead of the 2018 season.
