• Raiders' DJ Turner: Targeted seven times Sunday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Turner caught two of seven targets for 13 yards and also returned one punt for seven yards in Sunday's 20-15 loss to the Rams. Turner logged 75 of a possible 79 offensive snaps while earning a career-high seven targets with fellow wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (ankle) inactive for a second straight game, but the attention given to Turner from quarterbacks Aidan O'Connell (thumb) and Gardner Minshew didn't amount to much fantasy production. Meyers' potential Week 8 return from injury would result in a demotion for Turner into the No. 3 role, but he remains somewhat relevant following Davante Adams' departure to the Jets. Regardless, rookie sensation Brock Bowers continues to command a significant portion of the target share among this struggling aerial attack.

• Raiders' DJ Turner: Makes two receptions in loss

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Turner hauled in two of four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers. The third-year wideout drew the start across from Tre Tucker in the absence of both Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle), with Turner ultimately logging 42 of 63 offensive snaps. His day was highlighted by a 30-yard reception on the Raiders' final drive of the third quarter, which marked the team's only play of 20-plus yards in the entire contest. Turner has seen exactly four targets in back-to-back games, but Meyers at least appears on track to return from his ankle injury in Week 7 against the Rams.

• Raiders' DJ Turner: Nursing hamstring injury

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Turner was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session due to a hamstring injury. Turner made his first career start in Week 5 against the Broncos and finished with one catch (on four targets) for 12 yards while adding five rushing yards on one carry. He seems to be banged up coming out of that contest, but his ability to practice in some capacity Wednesday suggests that he's still on track to play Sunday against the Steelers. With Davante Adams (hamstring) likely to remain out Week 6, Turner should be in store for another healthy snap share.

• Raiders' DJ Turner: Targeted four times in loss

  20D ago • By RotoWire

  Turner caught one of four targets for 12 yards and added five rushing yards on his lone carry in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos. Turner drew the first official start of his three-year career next to Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker, with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but Turner didn't contribute much despite logging a season-high 52 offensive snaps. He could remain quite active in three-wide sets if Adams forces his way out of Las Vegas, as trade rumors continue to swirl ahead of a Week 6 matchup against the Steelers.

• Raiders' DJ Turner: Scores first career touchdown

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Turner rushed once for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Browns. His 42 percent snap share marked a season high and came with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined. Although Turner failed to haul in his only target, the 27-year-old hit pay dirt on an 18-yard end-around in the third quarter for his first career touchdown. Expect a similar role for Turner behind starters Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker in Week 5 against the Broncos if Adams remains out with the hamstring injury.
