The Generals went 9-1, while Turpin also gained 129 yards on the ground and scored a rushing touchdown.
Before joining the USFL, Turpin played four seasons at TCU. In his freshman year, he was named to the All-Big 12 First Team as a kick returner. He scored the league’s only punt return for a touchdown, and his 15.3 yards per punt return was the highest in the league.

As a receiver with the Horned Frogs, Turpin caught 145 balls – 13 of them scores – for 1,748 yards in 42 games.
Turpin now joins a Cowboy team that's looking for some receiver depth after trading away Amari Cooper and losing Cedrick Wilson to free agency.
