Zac Taylor said Friday that DJ Turner II was ready to play against Jacksonville on October 4, according to separate reports from Paul Dehner Jr. and Jay Morrison. Turner had been limited in Thursday’s practice with an ankle injury. Taylor’s assessment is a pregame update; the game-day inactive list is still to come.
DJ Turner II is listed at CB on the Cincinnati Bengals roster checked September 20, 2026. The official source lists the roster status as Active roster (ACT).

Regular-season records. Totals use each recorded season once, even when team splits and a combined row are both shown. Rates are recalculated from the counted totals. A dash means a value is missing or cannot be calculated reliably; these records do not establish complete career coverage. The current-season row is as of the update time above and can differ from the season statistics section, which adds up box scores through the latest recorded final.

Both receivers were questionable after injuries in the loss to Jacksonville, with Chase in the concussion protocol, but are expected to face the winless Dolphins.
Ravens linebacker Trenton Simpson, Jets safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and Broncos guard Ben Powers drew the largest fines, and five players were docked for hip-drop tackles.
Cleveland's quarterback and running back lost nearly $30,000 combined for a celebration against Pittsburgh, while TreVeyon Henderson and Jarrian Jones were also docked for Week 4 plays.
