On April 5, 1995 The Washington Redskins signed Turk. For the 1st time in his career, he made an NFL Roster. In 1996 he was named a First Team All-Pro, the last time a Redskin of any position has received that honor to date. He stayed on the team until they traded Turk to the Miami Dolphins on March 9, 2000. He was traded because of a stained relationship with owner Dan Snyder over a finger injury he had that caused him to miss a game. He also was upset because there was a report that he got injured in a basketball game (although that was later proven false after it was discovered that he was mis-diagnosed.) Turk said he "wasn't surprised" and the Redskins "did him a favor" by trading him.

Turk played for the Racine Raiders before entering the NFL. He signed with the Green Bay Packers and Los Angeles Rams in 1993 and 1994 respectively, but did not make the final roster on either team.
