Malik Turner Fantasy

The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to terms on a deal with wide receiver Malik Turner. The 26-year-old has spent each of the last two seasons with the Dallas Cowboys. He didn't play much in 2020, but actually started seeing decent action in 2021. Turner finished with 12 receptions, 149 receiving yards, and three touchdowns in 16 games last season. He was able to make a handful of flashy plays, but is nothing more than a depth player. Possibly, Turner will be the No. 4 option with the 49ers, but shouldn't hold much fantasy value.

Free-agent wide receivers Marcus Johnson and Malik Turner are visiting the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network. Through seven games in 2021, Johnson hauled in nine of 19 targets for 160 yards. Meanwhile, Turner enjoyed some late-game action, too, catching 12 passes for 149 yards and three scores. It remains to be seen if either player signs with San Francisco, but even if they do, it would only be for a depth role. Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittleand Jauan Jennings have asserted themselves as key pieces of the offense, which is already run-oriented.

Free-agent wide receiver Malik Turner visited the Arizona Cardinals on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Field Yates. Turner, 26, spent the last two years of his career in Dallas following a two-year stint with the Seahawks. This past season, he caught just 12 passes for 149 yards and three touchdowns, mainly occupying a depth role that included some garbage-time action. However, he would presumably see an increase in targets if he signed with Arizona. The Cardinals top two receivers are DeAndre Hopkins and Rondale Moore, but Turner could certainly compete with Antoine Wesley for the No. 3 role on the depth chart.
