The contractual standoff between Terry McLaurin and the Washington Commanders has created challenges in training camp. McLaurin is officially on the physically unable to perform list while seeking a contract extension, frustrated with the pace of negotiations. He enters the final year of his contract, earning $22.7 million on average, while aiming for a raise to match top NFL wide receivers. Concerns have arisen about the impact of his absence on team dynamics and offensive growth unless addressed swiftly. Although communication between McLaurin and the team has been limited, his prior performance shows he is a key asset.
Kingsbury indicated McLaurin's absence could both impair Washington's offensive growth and endanger their regular season performance if not resolved soon.

Kingsbury said that can't happen without McLaurin practicing.
There hasn't been a ton of contact with him... Until he gets back on the grass, that's when we'll building that back up.
