2024 Fantasy Outlook
Turner began his rookie season playing mostly on third downs, but by Week 12 he had emerged as one of the Bengals' starting corners, splitting time with Chidobe Awuzie. It was a bit of a baptism by fire for Turner, as he allowed four touchdown receptions over the last quarter of the campaign. As the starting corner opposite Cam Taylor-Britt, Turner will likely see plenty of action this season. Read Past Outlooks
Appears in 11 games in 2024
Turner (collarbone) finished the 2024 season with 29 tackles (24 solo) and eight pass breakups across 11 games with Cincinnati.
ANALYSIS
The No. 60 overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft, Turner started six of the 11 games in which he appeared but missed the final six contests with a broken collarbone, which landed him on injured reserve. He took over as an every-down outside cornerback in Week 5 and held the position until his injury in Week 11. It's unclear what the Bengals' plans are at cornerback going into 2025, but this defense needs upgrades at all three levels after the team allowed the fourth-most passing touchdowns in the NFL, leading to the firing of DC Lou Anarumo.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In camp competition against Hill
Turner could lose his starting job to Dax Hill in 2024, according to Ben Baby of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Hill appears to have a slight lead in their position battle at outside cornerback after minicamp. Turner started 12 games as a rookie last season, but Hill has adapted well to his new position after struggling as a starting safety in 2023. Cam Taylor-Britt appears locked in as a starter on the other side.
