The New Orleans Saints officially activated DE Payton Turner from injured reserve on Friday and placed LB Nephi Sewell on injured reserve.
The Saints officially designated Turner to return a few weeks ago, so this move was expected, as his window to be activated was set to close.
Turner, 24, is a former first-round pick by the Saints in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Houston. He’s in the third year of a four-year, $12,524,737 contract and set to earn a base salary of $1,798,612 in 2023.
In 2023, Turner has appeared in one game and recorded one tackle.
