We haven’t heard much about Trai Turner lately, but he told SiriusXM that he’ll “make a splash sooner than later.” Meanwhile, the free agent says that he’s now fully healthy following a year of maladies.

“Last year was a rough season for me with injuries and just overall. You go through things and situations arise, but you work through it and you get through it,” Turner said. “So, I’m feeling good. I’m just ready to come back and have a phenomenal season.”

Turner met with the Steelers recently, his only known visit of the offseason. The five-time Pro Bowler has been on the market since March, when the Bolts released him to save ~$11M against the salary cap. Now, he stands as one of the very best free agents on the board.

Turner, 28, mounted a Pro Bowl streak from 2015-19. But, last year he was limited to just to nine games. All in all, the former Panthers third-round pick has 89 career starts to his credit.
