Analysis by Shawn Childs, from his 2026 guide — his words, unedited.
Turpin is a matchup gimmick player who brings elite speed and open-field elusiveness. Over 15 games last year, he only had 38 targets, leading to 26 catches for 396 yards and two touchdowns. His best fantasy value from a receiving standpoint came in Week 2 (4/53/) and Week 17 (1/86/1). Turpin led the NFL in kick return yards over the past two seasons (27/904/1 and 69/1,814), adding value to the Cowboys’ fantasy defense.
