The 49ers signed Turner to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Turner spent the entire 2025 season on the 49ers' practice squad after not making the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He appeared in four games for Niners, including in their NFC wild-card win over the Eagles, when he played four snaps on offense while failing to haul in his lone target. As a member of the 49ers' 90-man roster, Turner will be eligible to participate in OTAs and minicamp, where he'll look to make a good impression on the coaching staff before the start of training camp in July.

Turner reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Turner played four snaps on offense but failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's wild-card win over the Eagles. He also saw playing time on special teams and could be elevated again for next week's divisional matchup versus the Seahawks.

The 49ers elevated Turner to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's wild-card matchup versus the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
Turner was elevated three times during the regular season but played just one offensive snap and didn't record any stats. He will likely contribute on special teams if he ends up playing against Philadelphia.

Turner reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Turner was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 20-10 win over the Falcons, failing to record any stats on offensive while playing 10 snaps with the unit. With Ricky Pearsall (knee) unavailable, Turner's 10 offensive snaps ranked fourth at wide receiver, behind Jauan Jennings (57), Kendrick Bourne (52) and Demarcus Robinson (23). Additionally, Turner compiled two tackles on kick coverage and one takedown on punt coverage in Week 7. The wide receiver will now have to be officially signed to the active roster to appear in another game this season.

The 49ers elevated Turner from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Turner will be elevated by the 49ers for the third time this season, which is the maximum amount of times for a player on a team's practice squad. Turner will provide support on special teams while adding depth to a 49ers wide receiver corps that is without Ricky Pearsall (knee) for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Turner reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transactions log.
EDGE Analysis
Turner played just six of San Francisco's 86 offensive snaps Thursday, as Demarcus Robinson (73), Kendrick Bourne (70) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (46) dominated in that category. With the 49ers still dealing with a ton of injuries at wide receiver, Turner could again be a candidate for elevation in Week 6 at Tampa Bay.

The 49ers elevated Turner from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Thursday night's game against the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
Turner will provide the 49ers with much-need depth at wide receiver due to the absences of Jauan Jennings (ankle), Ricky Pearsall (knee) and rookie fourth-rounder Jordan Watkins (calf). Turner was elevated to the active roster for the 49ers' Week 3 win over the Cardinals, when he played eight snaps (one on offense, seven on special teams) without showing up on the box score otherwise.

Turner reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Turner got his first elevation of the season for Sunday's win over Arizona and logged seven special-teams snaps along with one snap on offense. San Francisco's wideout corps has been depleted early in the season, as Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is on the PUP list, Jacob Cowing (hamstring) and Trent Taylor (undisclosed) are on IR, and Jauan Jennings (shoulder/ankle) missed Week 3. With that being said, even if Turner gets elevated again Week 4, he probably won't see much (if any) work on offense.

The 49ers elevated Turner from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Turner has spent the entire 2025 season on San Francisco's practice squad, but he has the chance to be active due to Jordan Watkins (calf) being sidelined. Turner would likely contribute primarily on special teams if active.

Turner signed with San Francisco's practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Turner could see some action early in the season while some of San Francisco's rostered receivers recover from injury, though fellow practice squad wideouts Robbie Chosen and Junior Bergen will also be vying for promotions to the roster. Turner's last regular-season appearance came back in 2022 with the 49ers.
