The New York Jets announced Wednesday that they’ve signed P Ben Turk to a futures contract for the 2018 season.
As of now, the Jets have signed 11 players to futures deals including:
- G Ben Braden
- T Korren Kirven
- WR Jalin Marshall
- WR Tre McBride
- DL Claude Pelon
- DB Terrell Sinkfield
- QB Joel Stave
- WR Damore’ea Stringfellow
- WR Daniel Williams
- RB Jeremy Langford
- P Ben Turk
Futures deals are essentially camp invites that will give players the opportunity to compete for roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp.
Turk, 27, wound up going undrafted out of Notre Dame back in 2012. He was invited to the Texans’ rookie minicamp in 2013 but was never signed to a contract.
During his college career at Notre Dame, Turk totaled 7,894 punt yards on 200 attempts (39.5 average) over the course of 45 games.
