The Facts:
Turner is using the offseason to round back into shape. He was fully recovered from his high ankle sprain in mid-April. “I wouldn’t say 100 (percent),” Turner said. “I would say 90. I’m well enough to play some games and not worry about it.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Although Turner was on pace for another mega-season, some believes he still has something to prove in 2010. “I just want to stay healthy,” Turner said. “I didn’t think I was having a bad season. My yards per carry was still pretty good and I was scoring touchdowns. I just needed more big plays for the team. But other than that . ... It was rough. It was rough going down like that and getting hurt. ..." We'll remind you that HC Mike Smith has talked about lightening Turner's workload a bit this fall, but we still contend it will be very difficult to do that if Turner is healthy and playing productively.
