Terry McLaurin Remains on PUP List as Commanders Reject Trade Request

Washington insists it will continue extension talks despite his absence from practice

Overview

  • McLaurin opened training camp on holdout and has been fined daily after formally requesting a trade to press for a new extension
  • He was placed on the physically unable to perform list with an ankle injury and has not participated in any practice sessions
  • The Commanders publicly state they do not intend to trade their star receiver and continue working toward a long-term deal
  • Washington’s first unofficial depth chart lists veteran Michael Gallup as the primary replacement if McLaurin misses regular-season snaps
  • McLaurin is seeking an annual average in the low $30 million range with guarantees comparable to top-paid peers such as D.K. Metcalf
