KaVontae Turpin is entering his third year as a utility wide receiver with the Dallas Cowboys. He is one of those players looking to benefit from the new kick return rules system in 2024 that the NFL is trying to implement. KaVontae will get a few opportunities on the offensive side of the ball as well. Let’s look at Turpin’s 2023 production to see where he was used in the Cowboys’ offense last season.
KaVontae Turpin’ 2023 Production
KaVontae Turpin had 12 receptions for 127 yards and 3 touchdowns and 11 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown in 2024. Fantasy Pros had Turpin as the WR96 last year in their metrics which was an interesting development. Because in deeper leagues Turpin provided a lot of value last season for players. Turpin was effective for the few plays that Dallas used him for in 2023 as he was able to find the end zone four times. This really helps his fantasy value.
In 2024, however, the expectations should be lowered a bit for Turpin especially when looking at the production numbers from 2023. This is because his traditional touchdowns will be down a bit. But his return game could see some of that added value back. Let’s look at the 2024 projections for KaVontae Turpin.
KaVontae Turpin’ 2024 Projections
ESPN is currently having Turpin projected to have 18 receptions for 230 yards and 2 touchdowns, with 8 carries for 60 yards in 2024. Those projections place him as the WR103 in ESPN projections. These projections don’t account for the potential special teams’ impact that might happen especially with the new kickoff rules. I think KaVontae is going to add value with a high-return game with a least a couple of return TDs in 2024.
Fantasy Pros has Turpin as the WR141 in their ECR ratings for 2024 with Dallas having the 20th easiest schedule for wide receivers this season. Here are his stat line projections according to Fantasy Pros, 19 receptions for 220 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2024. His speed brings some excitement as a WR4 value to the Cowboys. But that speed should also be translated into special teams work as the return game could also benefit Turpin fantasy owners.
Final Thoughts
Turpin is one of those returners if you have a deep league that you should target in 2024. This is because Dallas’ special teams are going to implement his speed into those new kickoff rules. Fantasy owners will benefit from this greatly because of the possible return touchdowns he could have. Turpin will also get some looks on the offensive side as well in 2024, but not enough to warrant a regular spot in simple 10-team leagues unless an injury happens.
