Noah Brown, Noah Brown Should Come Off PUP List Soon

The Athletic's Ben Standig reports that Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown (undisclosed) will join training camp practices soon but needs a bit of a ramp-up period and rest days. The Commanders placed Brown on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list to begin camp, but he could be back sooner than later. The 29-year-old was carted off the field on June 11 at minicamp, but the Commanders never specified what type of injury he was dealing with. It shouldn't really matter, though, as Brown should have enough time to get ready for Week 1 of the regular season if he can return to practice soon. When he does, he'll be competing for playing time as the No. 3 receiver behind Terry McLaurin and newcomer Deebo Samuel Sr. Brown missed the final two months of 2024 with a kidney injury and could face stiff competition from Luke McCaffrey.

Terry McLaurin, Terry McLaurin Officially Placed on Reserve/Did Not Report List

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin was officially placed on the Reserve/Did Not Report list on Wednesday. McLaurin continues to hold out as he seeks a new contract with the Commanders. The 29-year-old has been disappointed with the way contract talks with Washington have progressed and has not reported to training camp. He hasn't missed a game since 2020 and caught 82 passes for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns across 17 games last season. Scary Terry continues to weigh out his options for a new contract by holding out or requesting a trade. The Commanders highly value him and hope to get a new deal soon. Washington's star wideout's fantasy stock could continue to dip while the holdout continues. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation as McLaurin comes in as a high-end WR2 in upcoming fantasy drafts and is ranked WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings.

Terry McLaurin, Terry McLaurin Officially Holding Out

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who is seeking a new contract, did not report to training camp on Tuesday and is officially a holdout this summer, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. McLaurin wasn't present for the team's conditioning test on Tuesday, which marked the unofficial start of training camp. The 29-year-old pass-catcher is the only Commanders player that isn't accounted for. It doesn't come as a surprise after McLaurin recently said he was disappointed with the direction of contract talks with the team of late. He's seeking a new deal after catching 82 passes for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games in 2024. McLaurin now has five straight seasons of 1,000 receiving yards and is the unquestioned WR1 in D.C. He's due for TD regression, but with Jayden Daniels under center, he profiles as a strong WR2 in fantasy.

Terry McLaurin, Terry McLaurin Valued in Washington

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin is still uncertain for the start of training camp, but the Commanders are making it clear that they are willing to work on a new deal with their star receiver. Commanders General Manager Adam Peters said on Tuesday, "Without a doubt, I think everybody in this building values Terry very much. In terms of where we're at, we've had conversations recently and we'll look to have more conversations. ... We'll do whatever we can to get a deal done." Scary Terry has put up over 1,000 yards in each of his last five seasons without missing a game since 2020. He produced a new career-high 13 touchdowns last year while working with rookie standout Jayden Daniels. McLaurin is exploring every option, including a holdout, hold-in, and a trade request, so keep a close eye on his status as training camp opens.

Terry McLaurin, Terry McLaurin Not Trying to Break the Team Apart With New Deal

It's unclear if Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin will attend the start of training camp this week, but he said he's interested in "trying to bring a deal together, not breaking the team apart," according to a source close to McLaurin. The 29-year-old skipped offseason workouts as he seeks a long-term contract extension, and he also hasn't decided if he'll ask for a trade. The All-Pro wideout and team captain is exploring every option, including a holdout, hold-in and a trade request. McLaurin has made it clear he's frustrated with the situation, but the Commanders haven't talked to him about his contract in weeks. He turns 30 in September and is entering the final year of a four-year, $68.4 million deal. After posting his fifth-straight 1,000-yard season in 2024, McLaurin has become a strong WR2 target in fantasy.
