The Facts:
Turner reiterated that LaDainian Tomlinson will follow his preseason routine of using training camp to get ready while sitting out the four preseason contests. "Having him carry the ball 8 or 10 times in the preseason just to say we did it, it just doesn't make any sense to me," Turner said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Turner said the same earlier in the year. The coach further explained the decision as follows: "He can get himself ready to play. He's gotten himself ready to play the last three or four years without playing in the preseason. He can get ready out here in the practice field. He keeps himself in such great shape and he's got great ball security. He gets tackled enough. He'll be ready to go when the season starts. ..." Turner is right. Those interested in LT shouldn't let lack of pre-season action scare them off.
