Terry McLaurin Reports to Camp, Placed on PUP List

Sunday, July 27, 8:10 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin ended his holdout on Sunday morning. McLaurin has been removed from the did not report list and placed on the active/physically unable to perform list. The 29-year-old is reportedly dealing with an ankle issue that has lingered from last season. McLaurin is allowed to do some team activities, but cannot participate in practice until being medically cleared. The star wideout has been holding out over a new contract extension. McLaurin has one year left on a three-year extension that he signed in 2022. The decision to go to the PUP list does not mean the two sides are nearing a deal. This move allows McLaurin to avoid $50K daily fines that he was receiving for missing camp. Hopefully, the two sides can agree on a deal for the beginning of the regular season.

Justin Jefferson Dealing with Hamstring Strain

Friday, July 25, 3:28 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) has suffered a mild left-hamstring strain, according to Alec Lewis of The Athletic. Lewis reports that the team plans to be "really cautious" with its star receiver, but does not relay any sort of timeline for his return to practice. Jefferson missed seven games with an injury to his right hamstring back in 2023, so there's a history of soft-tissue injuries in his lower body. The 26-year-old is arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL, coming off a season in which he recorded 103 catches for 1,533 yards and 10 touchdowns. His presence on the field is critical to the success of Minnesota's offense and first-year starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy. It's too early to say that Jefferson is at risk of missing any significant time, but the Vikings are already likely facing an early-season suspension for their WR2, Jordan Addison.
