Terry McLaurin News
Tuesday, October 20, 11:22 AM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (knee) will miss the rest of the 2026 season after an MRI confirmed a torn patellar tendon, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. The 31-year-old was carted off during the first quarter of Monday's 23-17 loss to San Francisco after his left knee buckled while he was running a route. McLaurin finishes his season with 15 receptions for 230 yards and one touchdown across five games. Stefon Diggs, who has already caught 24 passes and scored four touchdowns this season, should remain Jayden Daniels' most dependable wide receiver. Treylon Burks is another player to watch after catching four of six targets for 66 yards against the 49ers. Listed directly behind McLaurin on Washington's depth chart, Burks has a clear shot at a bigger outside role. Tight end Chig Okonkwo also impressed Monday, catching all seven targets for 69 yards. The Commanders have a Week 7 bye before hosting Philadelphia on November 1.

George Pickens News
Friday, November 6, 10:32 AM
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts after being limited in practice throughout the week. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday that he remains hopeful Pickens will play, although the receiver has yet to practice fully while managing the injury. Pickens played just 57% of Dallas' offensive snaps in last week's loss to the Arizona Cardinals, catching two of four targets for 48 yards. He has recorded 39 receptions for 533 yards and two touchdowns through eight games, ranking second on the team in receiving yardage behind CeeDee Lamb. Ryan Flournoy has also become a consistent contributor, catching 30 passes for 342 yards this season. Pickens remains a fantasy WR2 if active, but his reduced playing time last week introduces some uncertainty about how heavily Dallas will use him against Indianapolis.
