Commanders, Terry McLaurin Not Close on New Deal

Monday, July 28, 4:10 PM

The difference between what the Washington Commanders are willing to offer and what wide receiver Terry McLaurin (ankle) is asking for in contract negotiations is "vast," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. McLaurin ended his holdout and reported to Commanders' training camp on Sunday, but he was immediately placed on the active/physically unable to perform list, so this could be a hold-in situation. McLaurin will turn 30 in September and has been remarkably durable throughout his career, playing in 17 games in each of the last five seasons. He caught 82 passes for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns in 2024, his first season playing with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels. McLaurin profiles as a high-end WR2 in fantasy as long as he's ready to go for the regular season, but it appears as though his return to the practice field is not particularly close.

Travis Hunter Holding his Own at Receiver

Tuesday, July 29, 8:08 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars two-way player Travis Hunter caught his first touchdown of training camp, a 5-yarder from Trevor Lawrence, as part of a successful practice at wide receiver on Tuesday. He took 24 snaps, his most in a single practice on offense so far, and "showed his considerable skills" as a receiver, according to Garry Smits of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union. Hunter, who won the Heisman Trophy at Colorado last season, entered the NFL as the second overall pick in this year's draft and will attempt to play both receiver and cornerback with the Jags. The 22-year-old hasn't manned both positions in one practice yet, but head coach Liam Coen has indicated that should change soon. At receiver, Hunter has the talent to serve as an excellent complement to Jaguars No. 1 Brian Thomas Jr. The question is how much playing time he'll get at the position during games. So far in camp, Hunter has tallied 79 snaps on offense and 47 on defense.
