Whats the word on Turps?

... I know he was injured few wks back. Any word on time frame making it back?

We sure could use skills on kick offs and punts. Mingo just not the dude.
So we do need them back due to popular belief over here that. Somehow, he. Doesn't do anything at all. We could use them taking the top off the defense on offense, too. Look, I know he's not a full time player. But in the past, he's been leading the league in yards the last two years, even if he hasn't. Took one to the house. And now with our other guy out in Goodson, we need him back now. I think he offers more. On offense. At this point. Then brown. And he's a better returner. I don't care what people say in here. I'm not saying this dude. Critical to our success, but he has something to offer this team that we don't have right now and that speed. He does not just run straight line for the dudes below, he actually has run many back that he had to cut.

...right now, they can use any little break they can muster up. Goodson is out couple weeks.

Mingo runs like statue. Turps is always one or two missed tackles away from home run.
 
Turpin = Nintendo controller with a broken directional pad

He only runs in a straight line with zero ability to dodge a defender.

He was planning on practicing today. I have not seen a report yet. Watch Thursday and Friday's practice reports though. Those should give us a much better idea whether he'll play.
 
He's probably needed now that the other guy is out, dang!! I bet he rushes back lol
 
Currently Turpin is 10th in the league in kick off returns. Considering the bad special teams we have that is pretty good. If he averaged just 2 more yards per return he would be 4th in the league.

Bottom line - Turpin isn't the problem.
 
Who cares he's terrible
Extremely!! He's too light in the behind to be a football player!

Exactly..he runs in a straight line and then runs into his own man and falls down.
Never tries to avoid contact, the coaches tell him to run where the blockers are he does that and nothing else.

Said perfectly!!

#7 post- All-pro, who cares!!! We're in 26 not whatever year that was, some of you live in the past far too often!!

1st or 2nd team ALL-PRO 2 years in a row is no joke.

You guys act like he suddenly forgot how to play football.

2 yards less per return and he’s 27th. Truth is kick returns really don’t matter unless they are taking them deep. You can pluck guys off the street to return kicks at 25 yards a pop.

I’m getting ahead of things but Turpin is an easy cap casualty this offseason. Hes an average return guy and below average as a receiver.
 
Even with that just because he was all pro doesn't mean he was all pro the following seasons!! Good example thunder!!!
To be fair his 2024 AP is pretty legit but he fell off after. His 2025 return numbers were largely due to leading the league in kick returns. More opportunities = more yards. He’s been very average the last couple seasons.

Right. And even on offense, he can add a little juice there. I mean, I find it ironic too that. Puka Nakua with the Rams. He hurt himself, although he was already beat up. Doing what? The exact thing that these owners say that no other coach does, but yet they do it all the time. Ran their best veteran receiver as a running back. Last offensive play of the game, too. They were winning and he gets hurt and he's out for a while...hmm

But we could sure use a little juice in the backfield, you know, motion reverses. Anything. Like you said, we can use any good luck we can right now...

He literally was in the top five. In return yards last year and to begin this year before he got hurt. So he's not taking it to the house. He's not as dynamic as he was. But he's always a move away from breaking one. Nothing's really changed. We could use the juice on special teams and. Offense in my opinion. But that's your opinion, and it's good that you have a few people who agree with you, but I disagree. I think he's better than. Brown,

Brown's not doing much. In my opinion, he's the one wasting a spot because Turpin can play offense and special teams. At this point, better than Brown... We wouldn't probably have this conversation if they could put him on long term IR had Goodson not got hurt. But since he is hurt, it means yes, we do need him and I hope he's back for the 49ers...
