Dallas Cowboys All-Pro kick returner KaVontae Turpin is facing misdemeanor charges of possession of marijuana (less than 2 ounces) and unlawful carrying of a weapon following his arrest on Saturday.

Turpin, 28, was arrested by the Allen (Texas) Police Department on Saturday, according to online records, and booked into the Collin County Jail.

He posted $1,500 bond and was released from custody on Sunday.

Turpin, who signed a three-year, $18 million extension in March, became the first Cowboy with punt, kickoff and receiving touchdowns in the same season in 2024. He finished with a career-high 31 catches for 420 yards and a pair of scores.

A two-time Pro Bowl selection, he led the NFL return average (33.5 yards) in 2024 and took one back 99 yards for a touchdown against the Washington Commanders.

In three seasons with Dallas, Turpin has played in 50 games (two starts) and compiled 44 receptions for 556 yards and five TDs. He has also rushed for 92 yards on 16 carries.
