2024 Fantasy Outlook
After a dynamic rookie season as a return man, teams avoided kicking the ball to Turpin last year, and his yardage dropped from 811 in 2022 to 371. He saw more work on offense, though, and Turpin scored his first career NFL touchdowns last season - three on the ground, one through the air - despite getting only 23 total touches. With RB Tony Pollard and WR Michael Gallup both gone, the Cowboys are relying on internal options to step up, and Turpin's usage as a gadget player could increase again. The 27-year-old isn't likely to become a full-time offensive player, however. Read Past Outlooks

Leading receiver on Thanksgiving
Turpin caught four of five targets for 53 yards in a 27-20 win over the Giants on Thanksgiving. He added two rushing yards on his lone carry.
ANALYSIS
With CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) sitting out most of the second half, Turpin wound up leading the Cowboys in receiving yards, although Luke Schoonmaker hauled in one more pass. Turpin's five touches and five targets were his highest totals since Week 6, but with Brandin Cooks now off IR, the third-year player could see his usage on offense dwindle once Lamb is healthy. Turpin will remain Dallas' top kick returner regardless, a role in which he's racked up 903 return yards and two touchdowns in 2024.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The 26-year-old parlayed an MVP season in the USFL into a contract with the Cowboys last summer, and Turpin solved the team's kick-return woes in his first NFL campaign. The TCU product didn't see much action on offense, however, catching just one pass and taking a few carries on jet sweeps. While there could be some depth snaps at wide receiver available following the departure of Noah Brown, Dallas did trade for Brandin Cooks this offseason and still has CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup at the top of the depth chart. It's hard to see Turpin making much of an impact outside of his return duties in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reaches fastest speed this season
Turpin reached a top speed of 22.36 miles per hour during his 64-yard touchdown catch Monday against the Texans, per Next Gen Stats, which is the fastest speed by a ball carrier this season and the fastest mark by a Cowboys ball carrier since this data became available in 2016.
ANALYSIS
Turpin showed off his blazing speed after getting into the open field, out-running Houston's defense for what turned out to be Dallas' only touchdown in a 34-10 loss. While most of Turpin's touches come on special teams as a punt and kickoff returner, the Cowboys would likely benefit on offense if they were able to get the ball into the speedster's hands in space more frequently.
