Anyone who can help in the return game is welcome. Heard some folks around here clamoring for him so we'll see. At 5' 9" and shifty, maybe a Beasley wrinkle as well? Where does he fit in a crowded receiver room though?

May be a TC signing as players get churned. Unless he really impresses in his work out.

If he makes it he’s going to be awfully tired….that would be a lot of football played.

The article is wrong about Lane Lenoir though. He had 88 targets and led the league in receptions at 52 for 484 yards (9.3 avg.) to Turpin's 44 and 540 yards (12.3 avg.).

Better than the oversized WRs that can’t create separation, and when they get the ball thrown to them they drop it.

4.31 speed that can play slot or deep threat and brings a dynamic most WRs don’t have on this team.

A dangerous returner is worth a lot; we have not had one is so long....

Actually I cannot remember when we had one.

Reggie Swinton comes to mind and after him Dwayne Harris in recent memory.

Lucky Whitehead had some decent returns.
And another player looked decent, but never showed much more than a few returns, he had a few electric returns.
Woody Danzler.
But it may have been more pre-season games for him.

Woody Danzler, 2002. Amazing return.

Loved him at TCU. Always good to see a Frog in the mix

Good option for punt returns.

 

[Ranched]

This is good news. Why subject Lamb to the wear & tear & risk of special teams? So he can average numbers that are highly mediocre in the NFL? Wanna bet Turpin can average seven or nine yards or more per punt return while Lamb is utilized in almost infinitely more important ways?! Hope the kid makes the roster.

Woody Danzler, 2002. Amazing return.

I was surprised that he only played 14 total games in the NFL. He appeared to have enough talent to play ST and function as a 3rd string RB and utility type player.

 

[Mannix]

But, but, but....can he block like Noah???

 

[Hardline]

I love it when Longhorn or Horned Frog gets a shot with the Cowboys.
My 2 favorite college football teams.
Cowboys signed Malik Jefferson now hopefully Turpin makes .
