Matt Turk begins latest chapter of lengthy career

Matt Turk, one of the oldest players in the NFL last season, signed a one-year contract worth nearly $2 million with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, giving the team an experienced punter to replace Adam Podlesh. Calling Turk a veteran would be an understatement. The 43-year-old player is joining his seventh franchise in 18 seasons. Turk said he had contact with Philadelphia and the New York Giants, as well as Houston, where he spent the last four seasons. He said the Texans asked him to hold off on making a choice until after they worked out Dave Zastudil and Daniel Sepulveda. Instead, he chose Jacksonville, returning to the Sunshine State where he played two stints with the Miami Dolphins.
