The Raiders will not tender wide receiver DJ Turner a contract offer, paving the way for him to become an unrestricted free agent.
As a restricted free agent, Turner would have cost $3.263 million for 2025 had the Raiders tendered him an offer.
Turner, signed as an undrafted free agent out of Pitt in 2021, grew into a valuable special teams player for the Raiders and had a career-high 16 catches for 158 yards last season.
The 28-year-old suffered a season-ending knee injury against the Chiefs on Nov. 29.
