Expert Analysis
Scott Burgess | Prep Redzone Scout
Turner is a corner, wide receiver, and wildcat QB. As a corner he comes up in run support as a hard hitter. When at WR he is smooth getting past defender, nice route runner, and quick getting out of breaks. Good speed and soft hands. Explosive runner getting on the perimeter as a wildcat QB.

made waves in the CPL Red Southeast Conference and carries a ton of promise in his still-growing 5’8, 135 lb. frame. As a CB, Turner III brings a ton of physicality (especially for his size) in run support and has no problems coming up and sticking RBs at the perimeter of his defense and out in space, and I like how he naturally stays around the football and is speedy enough out of his breaks to undercut and make plays on shorter/intermediate passes. As a wideout, he does a good job of creating separation as a route runner, is tough to bring down for his size after the catch, and has the speed to take the top off the defense. Like many freshmen on the initial PRzIL 2026 rankings, Turner III is going to need some help from mother nature and will require some physical growth and maturation to continue to raise his stock going forward, but size isn’t everything and Turner III’s varsity experience and athletic gifts are big plusses right now.
