Wednesday morning, I took some (ground turkey) meat out of the freezer and thawed it out. It stayed in the fridge Thursday, Friday, and I cooked it Saturday night. Today's Sunday. Can I still eat it tomorrow (Monday)

People get sick and sometimes even die from pulling arbitrary timelines for food safety out of the air--it seems anyway. Any meat, once thawed should be cooked within 48 hours of partial or full thawing.
It should be consumed or thrown away within 24 hours after that.
Dont eat it.

It really depends on the temperature of your fridge. Most people do not realize this, but it should be just above freezing (34 to 38 degrees). But still, four days before you cooked it. Better safe, than sorry!

Sure, it was cooked then it can be good up to a week. It probably didn't even thaw out till you cooked it. It will be fine.

When in doubt, toss it out.
However, your turkey should be fine, as long as it was kept properly.

Only unless you want the opportunity to count every single tile on your bathroom floor.
