Cincinnati Bengals Starter Offers Health Update With Offseason Workouts Looming

In this story:
CINCINNATI — Bengals cornerback DJ Turner II suffered a fractured clavicle in November and missed the rest of the 2024 season.
The 24-year-old shared an update on his health while training in Houston.
"I'm 100 percent," Turner said bluntly during his conversation with Aaron Wilson. "I'm ready to go."
Turner appeared to take a big step forward before his injury last season. He allowed a 74.0 passer rating on plays he was targeted, which was 10th in the NFL. He was also fifth in forced incompletion percentage (21%).
"Just put it all together," Turner said of his 2025 goals. "I feel like I was putting it together before [my injury]. And so just complete everything this year and put it all together."
