Terry McLaurin ready to escalate as Commanders go silent on deal
Briefly

Terry McLaurin's appeal for a contract extension with the Washington Commanders has not prompted urgency from the organization. Despite his All-Pro status and team captaincy, communication about his contract has stalled. McLaurin is reportedly considering all avenues to secure a new deal, which includes the possibility of a holdout at training camp or a trade request. He remains focused on maintaining a good relationship with the Commanders while navigating this uncertain situation.
[Terry] McLaurin, an All-Pro receiver and team captain, is most interested in "trying to bring a deal together, not breaking the team apart," according to a source close to McLaurin. If necessary, McLaurin will explore every option, including a holdout, a hold-in and a trade request, per the source. "Everything will be on the table," the source told me. But McLaurin is taking things day-by-day in hopes of hearing more from the Commanders, who have not talked to him about his contract in weeks - even after he spoke out about his dissatisfaction.
The fact that McLaurin is still concerned about his relationship with the organization is a testament to his high character. Nobody should have expected anything less, which makes his treatment up to now all the more disappointing.
