"Terry McLaurin made a triumphant return to the lineup in Week 8 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Washington Commanders had been missing their prolific wide receiver for four games due to a quad injury, and his presence on the field was a massive boost at the best possible time. Unfortunately, it was short-lived. McLaurin was taken out of the firing line after a superb sideline catch. Most fans thought this was just a precaution with the result out of sight. However, something far more concerning was afoot."
"He's reinjured the quad badly enough to end the uncertainty regarding his status almost immediately. This is a body blow to the Commanders, who are 3-5 and watching their season spiral out of control. Quinn added that he doesn't expect McLaurin to be out for long. He said that last time, too, and the pass-catcher missed four games. Now, after one brief appearance, he's back on the shelf, and this has only built frustrations after his long contract standoff during the summer."
Terry McLaurin returned in Week 8 after missing four games with a quad injury but was removed after a sideline catch and later diagnosed with a reinjury. Initial comments noted soreness and a day-to-day approach, but tests confirmed the setback. Head coach Dan Quinn ruled McLaurin out for Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks and said he does not expect an extended absence, despite a prior four-game absence. The Commanders, sitting at 3-5, have activated Deebo Samuel, re-signed Robbie Chosen to the practice squad, and will rely more on Jaylin Lane, Luke McCaffrey, and Chris Moore.
