KaVontae Turpin - Page 3 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Officially limited Wednesday Turpin (foot) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact Turpin wasn't spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice, so it's encouraging to see him officially listed as a limited participant. The No. 4 receiver and standout return man is nursing a foot injury sustained during the Cowboys' overtime tie against the Packers in Week 4. He'll have two more opportunities to upgrade his practice level ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets.

Not spotted at practice Turpin (foot) was not spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Turpin is reportedly managing a foot injury sustained during the Cowboys' overtime tie with the Packers in Week 4, making him uncertain for Sunday's road matchup against the winless Jets. If Turpin ends up missing any time, Jalen Tolbert will handle an increased workload on offense alongside George Pickens, as well as in the return game.

Three grabs in Sunday's tie Turpin caught three of four targets for 30 yards, gained four yards on his only carry and added 175 yards on six kickoff returns during Sunday's 40-40 overtime tie with the Packers...

Impact Even with CeeDee Lamb (ankle) on the shelf, Turpin didn't see a significant increase in his role as a receiver, with his 42 snaps on offense actually being less than the 48 he got over only four quarters last week against the Bears. He remains one of the NFL's preeminent return men however, with his 175 yards Sunday being a season high, and his 405 kickoff return yards on the season are second in the league behind the Titans' Chimere Dike (530).

Cowboys are adrift without Micah Parsons. Now they have to see him up close

With Micah Parsons coming to town, the Dallas Cowboys are already near the bottom of the NFL in sacks

Big-play specialist Sunday Turpin caught two of three targets for 64 yards, rushed for four yards on his only carry and added 77 return yards on two kickoff and two punt returns in Sunday's loss to the Bears...

Impact While he remains a threat as a return man every time he touches the ball, Turpin is also beginning to make an impact as a receiver, hauling in gains of 27 and 37 yards in Sunday's blowout loss. Over the last two games, he's produced a 6-111-1 line on seven targets, and Turpin's role in the Cowboys offense could increase further if CeeDee Lamb (ankle) is sidelined for a Week 4 clash with the Packers.

Cowboys get welcomed news on injured versatile offensive weapon The Cowboys got surprisingly positive news on return specialist and wide receiver KaVontae Turpin's neck injury.

Resumes practicing in full Turpin (neck) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact Turpin was listed as limited on Wednesday's injury report, though the Cowboys had merely held a walkthrough practice. In any case, Turpin now looks ready to rock for Sunday's road game against the Bears. Turpin's neck injury forced him to depart Week 2 against the Giants early, but before leaving the field he brought in all four of his targets for 47 yards and a score while racking up six rushing yards on two carries.

Listed as limited Turpin (neck) is listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's injury report, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Cowboys merely held a walkthrough, which means Turpin's participation level is an estimate. He never rejoined Sunday's win over the Giants after leaving in the third quarter, but the 'limited' listing Wednesday suggests Turpin may have some hope for Week 3 at Chicago. If not, Jalen Tolbert likely will take on more work as the No. 3 receiver, rather than sharing the role with Turpin again.

Suffers neck injury Turpin exited Sunday's game against the Giants due to a neck injury, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Impact After a kick return with less than six minutes remaining in the third quarter, Turpin visited the sideline tent before heading to the locker room without a helmet. Prior to his departure, he hauled in all four of his targets for 47 yards and one touchdown, recorded two carries for six yards, returned for kickoffs for 100 yards and tallied a two-yard punt return.

KaVontae Turpin: Play Aggressive Football | Dallas Cowboys 2025

SEPTEMBER 8, 2025 • YOUTUBE

Four touches in Thursday's loss Turpin carried the ball twice for nine yards, caught both his targets for 18 yards and added 81 yards on four kickoff returns in Thursday's loss to the Eagles.

Impact The new kickoff rules helped Turpin gain a big chunk of all-purpose yards, but the fourth-year wideout didn't see a significantly larger role on offense than he did in 2024 -- he saw at least four touches on six occasions last year. Turpin is a threat for a big play whenever he gets the ball in his hands, but outside of formats that reward return yards, his fantasy value remains limited.

Not playing Saturday Turpin is among Cowboys players not suiting up for Saturday's preseason opener against the Rams, Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Turpin, as Dallas' top kick returner, joins the majority of the team's starters in sitting out Saturday. The 29-year-old has also historically contributed as a depth wideout, and he's seen opportunities taking snaps out of the backfield this offseason. With Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders (knee), Jaydon Blue (heel) and Deuce Vaughn currently competing for reps in an unsolidified backfield, Turpin's speed gives him a genuine chance to work into what may shape up to be a committee approach.

AUGUST 4, 2025 • THELANDRYHAT.COM

Getting work in backfield Turpin has taken handoffs with the first-team offense during the first couple days of training camp, Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com reports.

Impact The 28-year-old is locked into a roster spot as the Cowboys' primary kick returner and as a depth option at wideout, but Turpin could be adding more duties to his portfolio. Dallas lacks an established starter in the backfield, with bargain free-agent signings Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders battling with rookies Jaydon Blue and Phil Mafah, as well as holdover Deuce Vaughn, for snaps and touches, and Turpin appears to be tossing his hat in the ring. While he's unlikely to win the top job outright, he could work in as part of a committee and provide a direct threat to Blue and Vaughn as an undersized speedster who can contribute as a receiver.
