Terry McLaurin expressed visible dejection and surprise over the lack of progress on his contract extension with the Washington Commanders. He feels undervalued after his contributions and highlighted that there had been no communication from his agent for over a month. Teammates and coaches have shown support, but McLaurin hinted at potential further actions if a resolution isn't reached. He underscored his performance and worth, stating that age should not be a reason for his underappreciation and acknowledged that time is of the essence in finalizing his contract.
Without any progress in discussions it's kind of hard to see how I step on the field. I'm not dismissing [age] completely. There are data points to support that, but how come it's not OK to say this may be a different case and based on what he's proven, showing no signs of deterioration, I feel that should be acknowledged as well. People making it seem like I need to start getting fitted for a walker and a cane. My game is going to mature in a great way. I guess you can say there is a point of no return. I don't think it's at that now but ... time is kind of ticking.
Terry McLaurin pleaded his case, acknowledging his age but also rightfully highlighting that he has shown no signs of slowing down. He intended to put Adam Peters on the clock with a veiled threat about further action to get what he's earned.
