Keyon Turner brings steady, assignment-sound depth to South Dakota’s secondary
In the 2024 season, Keyon Turner played in all 14 games for South Dakota at defensive back and on special teams, finishing with 7 total tackles, all solo, after appearing in all 13 games in 2023 as well.[1] His value is less about splash plays and more about reliability: he has been a durable, ready-to-go piece who earned extended snaps in the Coyotes’ 2023 NCAA quarterfinal run and showed he can handle game-day pressure.[1] If a staff wants a tough, dependable DB who won’t blink in the rotation, Turner fits the “steady hand” profile nicely.[1]
