Turpin is dangerous as a return man and as a wide receiver could end up being a real weapon. This guy could end up being a superstar.
He was 1st team all pro last season and probably will be again this year.

He already is a superstar. I’d love to see him get some more work at WR, but he’s best as a returner.

I loved those returns, in spite of the penalties.
But he got too full of himself on that KO return 9 yards deep in the end zone.

Yeah maybe it was because they were up big. Or he thought he seen some holes break open, but those close quick.

But he is and can be a huge plus for the offense as well.

Just don’t be a bone head and return it 8 yards deep and only get to the 14 ever again.
And then false start on a 3rd and short that series. Which was right after the Rams got within two scores. It was a critical time in the game and this idiot is trying to give them new life.

He's a dumb player.

Don't think that's correct. He was selected to the Pro Bowl. First-team All-Pro was New England's Marcus Jones at punt returner and Green Bay's Keisan Nixon at kick returner. Turpin wasn't even second-team All-Pro.

Or they told him to return one.

Apparently he was first team all pro as voted on by the players, not the actual AP team which is the gold standard. My bad, I saw this somewhere and conflated the two.
