Commanders' Cole Turner: Signs futures deal with Washington
Cole Turner signed a reserve/future contract with the Washington Commanders on Tuesday.Turner spent the entire 2024 season on the Commanders' practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp. The Nevada product has played in 22 regulars-season games since being selected by Washington in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Turner will be on the Commanders' 90-man roster at the start of the new league year, and he'll use OTAs, minicamp and training camp as an opportunity to earn a spot on the 53-man roster for the 2025 campaign.

Commanders' Cole Turner: Catches 11 passes in 12 games
Cole Turner caught 11 of 15 targets for 120 yards in 12 games during the 2023 season.There was some spring/summer chatter about Turner potentially supplanting Logan Thomas as Washington's top tight end, but it never came to fruition even after the second-year pro caught seven passes over the first three weeks of the season. Turner caught just four balls the rest of the year and was even a healthy scratch at times, so he'll need to compete for a job in 2024 even if Thomas is released to help clear cap space.

Commanders' Cole Turner: Healthy scratch
Cole Turner (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's tilt against the 49ers.Turner played just four offensive snaps (seven percent) in Week 16, and it looks like the Washington Commanders feel comfortable with their tight end depth this week. As a result, his only remaining chance to play again this season will come in Week 18 versus the Cowboys.

Commanders' Cole Turner: Distant third on TE depth chart
Cole Turner played seven of the Washington Commanders' 55 snaps on offense and hauled in his lone target for a two-yard reception in Sunday's 45-15 loss to the Dolphins.While the second-year player profiles as a strong pass catcher and has run routes on 60.3 percent of his offensive snaps this season, he's not seeing enough playing time behind fellow tight ends Logan Thomas and John Bates to make much of a splash in the box score. Through his 11 appearances this season, Turner has yet to find the end zone and has recorded more than one reception on just two occasions.

Commanders' Cole Turner: Will suit up Sunday
Cole Turner is active for Sunday's Week 11 clash with the Giants.Turner was a healthy scratch both Week 8 and Week 10 but will be available to face New York on Sunday. The tight end had four catches on seven targets for 35 yards Week 2 versus Buffalo but has compiled only four catches for 47 yards combined across the other seven contests during which he has been active. Turner's role will likely remain limited as long as top TE Logan Thomas is healthy.
