KAVONTAE TURPIN NEWS

Two return TDs against Bolts Turpin recorded a 98-yard kickoff return and an 86-yard punt return, both for touchdowns, in Saturday's preseason game against the Chargers.

Impact He also gained seven yards on his only carry, but it was Turpin's electric work on special teams that had the entire league buzzing Saturday night. Per Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, the 5-foot-7 rookie has a spot on the 53-man roster sewn up, and given the Cowboys' lack of depth at wide receiver heading into Week 1 that could translate into more than just a role as the team's top return man.

JULY 28, 2022

Signs with Cowboys Turpin signed a contract with the Cowboys on Thursday, Rob Phillips of the team's official site reports.

Impact The 25-year-old went undrafted out of TCU after being dismissed from the team during his senior year in 2018 due to a domestic violence charge, but Turpin was able to revive his career this spring in the USFL, emerging as the upstart league's MVP by hauling in a league-leading 540 receiving yards on 44 catches for the New Jersey Generals. The 5-9 receiver might have a hard time earning targets even in a depleted Dallas wideout group, but Turpin's abilities as a punt returner could at least help him secure a roster spot.
