Saints EDGE Payton Turner revealed he underwent "pretty major" shoulder surgery in November of last season.

29 June 2022

"It's been a long road to recovery," Turner tweeted Wednesday. "I had a pretty major shoulder surgery last November and didn?t have quite the rookie year I wanted but shoutout to everybody that?s stayed down with me and helped me get to this point, blessed to say I?ve been CLEARED." Turner was picked No. 28 overall last spring out of Houston but played in just five games as a rookie before his season ended in Week 9. Getting Turner back gives the Saints added depth off the edge alongside Cameron Jordan and Marcus Davenport, who is recovering from a partial finger amputation.
