Turner logged 21 tackles (11 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass defenses and two forced fumbles across 16 games during the 2024 regular season. Turner played in just 15 regular-season games over the first three years of his NFL career due to injury. He worked alongside Chase Young as the Saints' rotational defensive ends behind starters Carl Granderson and Cameron Jordan, and the reduced workload led to Turner appearing in all but one game during the 2024 regular season. The Saints declined the fifth-year option on Turner's rookie contract, so the 2021 first-round pick will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.
Turner (ankle) is active for Sunday's tilt against Tampa Bay. Turner missed the Saints' first two practices of the week due to an ankle injury, but he was a limited participant Friday and has been cleared to suit up in the team's regular-season finale. The fourth-year defensive end has been working in a rotational role throughout the campaign while also serving on special teams. Turner would set a new career high if he can log at least a half-sack Sunday.
Turner (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bucs, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Turner was injured in last Sunday's loss to the Raiders and logged a pair of DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday before returning to a limited practice Friday. The 2021 first-round pick has been a flop in New Orleans, logging 5.0 career sacks and never turning into a starter for the team. He's played in a career-high 15 games this season as a reserve lineman, logging 21 tackles (10 solo), including 2.0 sacks, four pass breakups and two forced fumbles. Turner's rookie contract is set to expire in March.
Turner hurt his ankle against Las Vegas on Sunday and is doubtful to return, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. Turner was deemed doubtful with just over three minutes left in the contest, which adds to the unlikelihood of him returning. Prior to his exit, he recorded one assisted tackle.
Turner finished Sunday's 20-17 win over the Falcons with four tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defense and one forced fumble. Turner logged his second sack of the regular season Sunday when he got to Kirk Cousins late in the second quarter for a five-yard loss, stripping the ball in the process that was recovered by Drake London. Turner played a season-high 29 snaps on defense, but he's still firmly entrenched as the Saints' No. 4 defensive end behind Cameron Jordan, Carl Granderson and Chase Young. Through nine regular-season games, Turner has logged 13 tackles (eight solo), including 2.0 sacks, three pass defenses and two forced fumbles.
Turner (knee) carries no injury designation ahead of Thursday's game against the Broncos. Turner was held out of the Saints' Week 5 contest against the Chiefs due to a knee injury. He managed to play through the issue Sunday against the Buccaneers, and even on a short week, Turner is slated to suit up for Thursday's contest. He's provided rotational depth at defensive end this year and has accumulated five tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass defended and one forced fumble across five regular-season games.
Tunrer (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation. Turner played through his knee injury in the Saints' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers, recording one tackle across 38 total snaps (13 defensive and 25 on special teams). The 2021 first-round pick will likely continue playing through injury in Week 7 unless he downgrades to no participation either Tuesday or Wednesday.
Turner (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, John Hendrix of SI.com reports. Turner was forced to miss New Orleans' Week 5 loss to Kansas City but is set to return after turning in two limited practices to close the week. He should resume his rotational role along the defensive line.
Turner (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Chiefs, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Turner picked up a knee injury during the Saints' Week 4 loss against the Falcons. He was unable to practice all week, and his next chance at playing will be against the Buccaneers in Week 6. Chase Young and Isaiah Foskey should see more snaps as rotational defensive ends behind starters Cameron Jordan and Carl Granderson.
