Malik Turner caught a 71-yard touchdown for the Michigan Panthers

Former Green Bay Packers receiver Malik Turner, who was a member of the Packers’ roster during the 2020 offseason, made his presence felt in the United Football League’s championship game on Saturday. Turner, who has played with seven NFL teams before joining the UFL in 2025, was able to bring in a 71-yard catch-and-run touchdown in the final minute of the first half to cut the DC Defenders’ lead to 12 points.

The Packers currently have one roster spot open, meaning that there is the potential for the team to add a UFL player to their summer roster, be it the Michigan Panther receiver or someone else.

You can watch the end of this UFL matchup on ABC. At the time of this article going live, the Defenders hold a 40-19 lead over the favored Panthers midway through the third quarter.
