Who Should I Start? Samson Nacua or KaVontae Turpin

Friday, August 2, 1:51 PM

The New Orleans Saints signed wide receiver Samson Nacua on Friday, the team announced on X. The brother of 2023 breakout star Puka Nacua spent four seasons at Utah before one year at BYU in 2021 and tallied 103 receptions for 1,344 yards and 14 touchdowns in 58 collegiate games. He went undrafted and last played for the Michigan Panthers of the UFL this spring, catching 11 passes for 125 yards. The 26-year-old is unlikely to be a fantasy football contributor in 2024, but he has an outside chance of making the team's roster given the lack of depth behind Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver/return specialist KaVontae Turpin touched the ball four times offensively on Sunday in the 23-19 loss to Washington. Turpin turned three receptions into 53 yards while also rushing once for five yards. He also ripped off a 30-yard kick return. The 28-year-old gadget player saw more involvement in the offense down the stretch with CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) out. Turpin becomes a restricted free agent in the spring, but Dallas will likely bring him back after a Pro Bowl season.
