During his first two MLS seasons, Revolution goalkeeper Matt Turner spent more time traveling down I-95 than he did playing at Gillette Stadium.
An undrafted signee in 2016, Turner joined a Revolution side with proven goalkeepers Bobby Shuttleworth and Brad Knighton already on its roster. That made Turner the team’s third-string keeper. But the Revolution saw potential in the Fairfield University alum and ultimately sent him on several loan stints to the Richmond Kickers (USL), where he made 27 starts from 2016-2017.
Ahead of the 2018 season, Turner had apparently grown tired of making the trip to Richmond.
