Who Should I Start? KaVontae Turpin or Isaiah Bond

Tuesday, November 25, 5:17 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin (illness, shoulder) was back at practice on a limited basis on Tuesday due to an illness and a shoulder injury, per The Athletic's Jon Machota. Turpin's return to the practice field on Tuesday after being a DNP on Monday is a sign that he's trending towards being available on Thanksgiving on Thursday versus the Kansas City Chiefs. The 29-year-old caught one pass for a 48-yard pickup on two targets in Sunday's win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Turpin is more of an asset for Dallas as a kick returner on special teams. He has not caught more than two passes in a game since Sept. 28 against the Green Bay Packers, and his only score on offense in 2025 came back on Sept. 14 versus the New York Giants. If active on Thursday against KC, Turpin isn't a realistic starting option in fantasy football lineups.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond caught both of his targets for 58 yards in a 24-10 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 12. Bond did most of his damage on a 52-yard reception in the first half, a play that helped set up Quinshon Judkins for a two-yard touchdown run. The rookie receiver had been quiet in recent weeks, as this was his first game with a catch since Week 6 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bond overall has 13 catches for 181 scoreless yards across 10 games this season. He remains an interesting bench stash in deep dynasty leagues, but will not be a recommended fantasy option in Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers.
