  • Saints' Payton Turner: Lands on IR

    New Orleans placed Turner (toe) on injured reserve Wednesday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Turner played only seven defensive snaps in the Saints' season opener before exiting with a turf toe injury. The issue is serious enough to potentially require surgery, thus his placement on IR. Turner isn't eligible to return until mid-October, with Tanoh Kpassagnon likely seeing increased action in his place.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Probably needs turf toe surgery

    Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that Turner will probably have to have surgery for turf toe, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    It's a brutal break for Turner, who only got to play seven defensive snaps in New Orleans' opener before being forced out with the injury. Exactly how much time he can be expected to miss is anyone's guess at this point, but in the meantime, veteran Tanoh Kpassagnon will probably see increased reps at defensive end.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Likely requires surgery

    Turner is believed to be dealing with turf toe that should require surgery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Turner left Sunday's regular-season opener due to his injury, and he'll likely be forced to miss additional time early in the regular season. The 2021 first-rounder has missed significant time due to injuries to begin his professional career, and Tanoh Kpassagnon could see an increased role during Turner's impending absence.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Leaves with injury

    Turner has exited Sunday's game against the Titans with a toe injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Turner's departure will leave New Orleans light on the defensive front, with Tanoh Kpassagnon as the only reserve edge rusher on the depth chart. The former will try and return in the second half.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Avoids injury report

    Turner (ankle) wasn't listed on the Saints' practice report Tuesday.

    Turner has missed each of New Orleans' previous three games as a result of an ankle injury, but his absence from Tuesday's practice estimate implies that the 23-year-old should be ready to go this weekend against the Browns. He'll likely handle a rotational role alongside Carl Granderson and Tanoh Kpassagnon behind starters Cameron Jordan and Marcus Davenport.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Inactive again

    Turner (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Atlanta, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Turner logged a full practice Friday and was deemed questionable, but he'll still miss a third straight game due to an ankle injury. Carl Granderson and Tanoh Kpassagnon remain candidates for increased roles with Turner sidelined again.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Deemed questionable for Sunday

    Turner (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Atlanta, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Turner logged a full practice Friday after being limited during Wednesday's and Thursday's sessions due to an ankle injury that's already cost him back-to-back contests. It's certainly encouraging to see the second-year defensive end back at practice, but his questionable designation suggests he'll be limited if he's ultimately deemed available for Week 15. Carl Granderson figures to remain the primary beneficiary if Turner is ruled out for a third consecutive contest.

  • Saints' Payton Turner: Not playing at Tampa Bay

    Turner (ankle) is listed as out for Monday's game at the Buccaneers, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

    Turner will miss his second consecutive game with an ankle injury he sustained in Week 11 versus the Rams. In the place of the 2021 first-rounder, Carl Granderson should continue to see increased reps on the edge.
