Out in San Francisco
Turner was cut from the 49ers' practice squad Wednesday. Turner signed with San Francisco's practice squad Oct. 23, but it now appears the team has decided to move in another direction. The Illinois product most recently appeared in two regular-season games with the 49ers in 2022, playing almost strictly on special teams (49 of 50 total snaps on special teams). In a corresponding move, the 49ers signed veteran wide receiver Russell Gage to their practice squad.
Joins 49ers' practice squad
Turner was signed to the 49ers' practice squad Wednesday. Turner was let go by San Francisco in August with an injury settlement, but he will now return to the team. With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) done for the season, Turner will provide the 49ers with another depth option at wide receiver down the stretch.
Let go with injury settlement
The 49ers released Turner from injured reserve with an injury settlement Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Turner was placed on San Francisco's injured reserve Tuesday with an unspecified injury, and he was set to miss the entire 2024 campaign until reaching a settlement two days later. Once healthy, the 28-year-old wide receiver out of Illinois will look to catch onto another team's roster, most likely on the practice squad.
Placed on IR
The 49ers placed Turner (undisclosed) on injured reserve Tuesday. Turner signed a one-year deal with the 49ers on July 25, but he will now be forced to miss the entire 2024 season unless he is waived with an injury settlement. Turner last saw NFL action in 2022 with San Francisco, when he played 49 snaps on special teams across three regular-season outings.
Signs with San Francisco
The 49ers signed Turner to a one-year deal Thursday. With Trent Williams holding out, it opened up a roster spot in San Francisco. Turner appeared in three games for the Niners in 2022 but was out of the league last season after spending most of last summer with the Colts. Turner is now 28 years old and has 29 career catches across 44 contests.
