Turner tallied five tackles (four solo), including 2.0 sacks, along with two forced fumbles and a defensed pass in Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Seahawks. While Minnesota got blown out in a 26-0 defeat, the team's defense often held its own. Turner was a leader among the unit, twice sacking Sam Darnold. On both sacks, Turner knocked the ball free, and one of those fumbles was recovered by Minnesota. Turner has 4.0 sacks over the past three weeks, pushing his total to 5.5 on the campaign.

Turner (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. Turner logged two limited practices with a fresh hip injury before upgrading to a full participant Friday in time to dodge a designation for Sunday's contest. The linebacker has filled a void caused by the absence of Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) and will likely do so again this week if Greenard cannot suit up Sunday.

Turner (hip) logged a limited practice session Wednesday. Turner has stepped up his performance in recent weeks in the absence of Jonathan Greenard (shoulder), logging 1.0 sack in each of his last two games. The severity of his hip injury is unclear, but Turner's ability to practice in any capacity to begin the week is a positive.

Turner recorded seven total tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defended in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Bears. With Jonathan Greenard (shoulder) sidelined Sunday, Turner had an expanded role on the Vikings' defense. He tied his season high in snaps (65) and was one of two Vikings to sack Caleb Williams. Turner, a 2024 first-round pick from Alabama, has now recorded 38 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, and two passes defended over Minnesota's first 10 games this season. He could start opposite Andrew Van Ginkel again in the Week 12 matchup against the Packers if Greenard continues to miss time.

Turner (illness) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns. Turner logged a DNP at Thursday's practice due to an illness, but he upgraded to a full-go Friday, suggesting he's moved past the issue in time to face the Browns on Sunday. With the 2024 first-round pick back at full health, he's expected to start opposite Jonathan Greenard in Week 5.
