• Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Non-factor against Philadelphia

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Turpin went without a target while playing eight snaps on offense and returned two kickoffs for 87 yards in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Eagles. Turpin was not targeted for just the second time all season and was held without a touch on offense for the third time in nine games. The third-year wideout's eight snaps on offense were the fewest of any Dallas wide receiver who was active for the contest. Turpin's limited usage, along with the fact that quarterback Dak Prescott (hamstring) will miss the rest of the season, will keep Turpin well off the fantasy radar.

  Turpin caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. He also added 65 return yards on three punts and one kickoff. The third-year wideout had a chance to take a punt to the house in the fourth quarter, but he couldn't stay in bounds as he raced down the sideline. Turpin has seen at least four targets in four straight games as his role in the offense grows, posting a 12-126-0 line on 20 targets over that stretch while adding 11 yards on three carries, and he could see even more volume Week 10 against the Eagles if CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) isn't able to suit up.

• Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Targeted four times in loss

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  Turpin caught one of four targets for 16 yards and added one carry for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the 49ers. Turpin had a quiet day against the 49ers, as he was unable to connect with quarterback Dak Prescott on multiple occasions. The 28-year-old wideout played just 14 of the Cowboys' 62 offensive snaps, behind CeeDee Lamb (55), Jalen Tolbert (55) and Jalen Brooks (41). Turpin is not a priority in the Cowboys' passing attack, and his playing time will likely take even more of a hit once Brandin Cooks (knee) returns to the field from his stint on injured reserve. The Cowboys are set to visit the Falcons in Week 9.

• Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Seeing steady work

  10/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  Turpin caught four of seven targets for 24 yards and gained six yards on his only carry in Sunday's loss to the Lions. He also added 194 yards on four kickoff returns. His biggest play came right before halftime, when Turpin took a kickoff at the back of the end zone and zipped 79 yards to the Detroit 30-yard line. The Cowboys only got a field goal out of it, though, en route to a 47-9 shellacking. The seven targets were a career high for Turpin, and the third-year speedster has hauled in eight catches for 74 yards over two games since Brandin Cooks (knee) was placed on IR. Turpin should remain a secondary part of the passing offense, in addition to his special-teams role, on the other side of the Cowboys' Week 7 bye.

• Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Five touches Sunday

  10/07/2024 • By RotoWire

  Turpin caught four of five targets for 50 yards and lost six yards on his only carry in Sunday's win over the Steelers. He added 38 yards on his only kickoff return. With Brandin Cooks (knee) on IR, Turpin stepped into the No. 3 wide receiver role behind CeeDee Lamb and Jalen Tolbert and set season highs in receptions and targets. Turpin's biggest play came on the Cowboys' first drive of the second half, as Dak Prescott found him deep over the middle for a 34-yard strike. Turpin isn't likely to see big volume without further injuries ahead of him on the Dallas depth chart, but his ability to pop for a big gain any time he gets the ball makes him an upside option while Cooks is sidelined.
