Re-signs for three years Turpin and the Cowboys reached agreement Tuesday on a three-year contract, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports

Impact The report notes that Turpin will become the "highest-paid special teams player in NFL history", although part of the motivation for re-signing him is that he's also a significant contributor on offense. He caught 31 of 52 targets for 420 yards and two TDs last season, adding 16 carries for 92 yards, 18 punt returns for 187 yards (with one TD) and 27 kick returns for 904 yards (and another TD). Turpin is a late bloomer who went undrafted back in 2019 and didn't make a regular-season appearance until 2022, which explains why he'll be 29 years old at the start of his fourth NFL campaign come September. He'll presumably land somewhere between third and fifth on the depth chart at wide receiver, in addition to returning both punts and kickoffs.

'Best play I've ever seen': The 10 must-see plays of 2024 NFL regular season

The 2024 NFL season has included many exciting plays, but which ones were the best? Here are the top 10 must-see of the regular season.

JANUARY 6

Three grabs in Sunday's loss Turpin caught three of five targets for 53 yards, gained five rushing yards on his only carry and added 32 return yards in Sunday's loss to the Commanders.

Impact The versatile third-year wideout hauled in multiple passes for the first time since Week 13. Turpin took on a slightly bigger role in the Cowboys' offense down the stretch with CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) on the shelf, but his primary value to Dallas comes on special teams -- the 28-year-old is one of the league's elite return men, leading the NFL with 904 kickoff return yards in 2024, and Turpin was the only player to score a TD on both a punt and a kickoff return this season. He'll be a free agent this offseason, and his services figure to be in high demand.

Three touches against Philly Turpin caught one of four targets for 16 yards and gained 18 rushing yards on two carries in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He also added 48 yards on two kickoff returns.

Impact The star returner leads the NFL with 874 kickoff return yards and 1,060 combined kickoff and punt return yards, and he's the only player in the league to score a touchdown on each kind of return. Turpin didn't see his usage as a receiver increase significantly in Week 17 however, even with CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) done for the season, and the 28-year-old hasn't caught more than one pass in a game since Week 13. Turpin's role may not change much in Week 18 against the Commanders, but if the Cowboys do decide to rest starters, he's more likely to be among the players to sit than to benefit.

Four touches in win Turpin caught his lone target for seven yards and rushed three times for 11 yards in Sunday's 26-24 win over the Buccaneers.

Impact Turpin was unable to produce much on his four touches against Tampa Bay, being used more as a rusher than a receiver in the Cowboys' offensive scheme Sunday. The third-year wideout has flashed impressive playmaking ability this season, but he lacks consistency in his production to make him a reliable fantasy option on a weekly basis. Next up for Turpin and the Cowboys is a Week 17 matchup with the Eagles.

Modest production in win Turpin failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Panthers.

Impact Though Turpin didn't record a reception Sunday, he did manage to gain 27 yards on two rushing attempts against the Panthers. The speedy wideout played just 14 of the Cowboys' 73 offensive snaps and was held without a catch for just the fourth time all season. Turpin is a dynamic weapon, but he does not see enough consistent usage in the Cowboys offense to be a viable fantasy asset. With that said, the 28-year-old will look to be more involved in Week 16 against a vulnerable Tampa Bay secondary.
