Overview
- The team has told interested clubs McLaurin is not available and says it is working to finalize an extension, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.
- McLaurin requested a trade on July 31 and is entering the final year of his deal with a $15.5 million base salary.
- Insiders report the situation is in a better spot, though a divide persists between McLaurin seeking above roughly $33 million per year and Washington preferring about $27–28 million.
- Activated from the PUP list last week, McLaurin has not resumed full practice and has no firm timetable to do so.
- Jayden Daniels said he is “100 percent” confident an agreement will be reached as Washington aims for a pre–Week 1 resolution; McLaurin posted 1,096 yards and 13 touchdowns last season.
