Overview

  • Tentative terms reported by multiple outlets put the deal at three years and up to $96 million, with a $32 million AAV tied near sixth among NFL wideouts.
  • The agreement ends a weeks-long hold-in that included skipped minicamp, daily fines, a PUP designation, and a formal trade request.
  • McLaurin is expected to be available for Washington’s Week 1 home opener against the Giants on Sept. 7.
  • The extension effectively keeps McLaurin under team control through the 2028 season, per multiple reports.
  • Coming off 82 receptions, 1,096 yards and a franchise-record 13 TDs in 2024, McLaurin returns to anchor Jayden Daniels’ receiving corps alongside newcomer Deebo Samuel.
