A.J. Turner brings home-run burst and touchdown upside to Minnesota’s backfield

Turner’s calling card is explosive efficiency: in the 2024 season at Marshall, he averaged 8.3 yards per carry, totaled 864 rushing yards and 8.3 yards per touch, and scored 8 total touchdowns on 112 touches.[1][4][10] He also flashed as a receiver with 68 receiving yards and 2 receiving scores in 2024, giving him legitimate dual-threat value.[1][4][10] For Minnesota, the big question is durability after a 2025 season that was cut short after three games and a season-ending injury, so he profiles as a high-upside fit if your team wants a dynamic runner with proven big-play juice.[8]
