Terry McLaurin talks to reporters at an Eastern Motors event

Terry McLaurin is still holding out, and he says he hasn’t talked to the Washington Commanders in a month. He is looking for a new contract that shows he is appreciated as a top wide receiver on the team and league wide. He is going into the final year of his deal and is likely looking for a deal that adds another 3+ years, and is worth at least $30m/year.

McLaurin says he wants to be here, and he loves the team, the city, and the fanbase, but he wants to be appreciated for the level of player he is, and the level of teammate he is. He is frustrated by the lack of progress, and the perceived lack of value that Washington is currently putting on him.

He doesn’t plan on sitting out of training camp, but he is taking it day by day and talking to his agent as it gets closer to the time when he would start getting fined if he held out. McLaurin hasn’t discussed any trade scenarios, and is hoping to get a deal done to return to his teammates and to build upon last year’s success.
