Malik Turner: 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.

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.

Arizona worked out Turner (undisclosed) Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
It's the first action Turner has seen since he was cut by Indianapolis prior to Week 1. The Cardinals are relatively thin at the wide receiver position, so it makes some sense that they're looking to bolster their roster there.

Malik Turner: Joins Texans' practice squad
Houston signed Turner to its practice squad Friday.
Just a few days after being cut from the Raiders' practice squad, Turner has already found another opportunity to make an impression with the Texans. With Nico Collins (foot) recently having landed on the injured reserve list and Brandin Cooks (calf) and Chris Moore (foot) both questionable for Week 16, Turner could see himself elevated to the active roster sooner rather than later.

Turner didn't see any work on offense in the Week 5 win over the Panthers, but he did record an assisted tackle on kick coverage. This was Turner's third promotion from the practice squad, so he will need to be signed to the active roster if he's going to appear for the 49ers again this season.

49ers' Malik Turner: PIcked up for Week 1
Turner has been elevated to the 49ers' active roster ahead of Sunday's Week 1 matchup with the Bears, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Turner was unable to earn a spot on the team's 53-man roster during final cuts and subsequently signed with the practice squad. However, he has since earned a spot on the Week 1 roster as the team's No. 6 wide receiver. Still, he is most likely to contribute on special teams rather than offense.
