  • Big game Sunday

    McLaurin notched seven receptions on 12 targets for 122 yards and one touchdown against Green Bay on Sunday.

    Analysis: McLaurin had his hamstring injury designation removed Friday, and if his production against the Packers is any indication, the issue really was a thing of the past. McLaurin produced 45.5 percent of Washington's receiving yardage on the day on just over 32 percent of the targets. By now McLaurin is a proven, time-tested candidate to carry a disproportionately large share of the Washington passing game even while drastically outplaying the efficiency levels of his teammates. Washington heads to…read more

  • All clear for Sunday

    McLaurin (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin was a Friday addition to the injury report last week, but he ultimately played 95 percent of the snaps in a 31-13 loss to the Chiefs and caught only four of eight targets for 28 yards. Washington will need more from him to have a shot at pulling off the upset at Lambeau Field this Sunday, and while it's a tough spot for the team overall, McLaurin faces a beatable cornerback group with no Jaire Alexander (shoulder), who is on injured reserve.

  • Practicing again Friday

    McLaurin (hamstring) is participating in position drills at Friday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin was a limited participant at Thursday's session, and he looks to be working in that capacity again Friday, at a minimum. The 26-year-old had 25 catches for 354 yards and three touchdowns across the first four games of the season, but he has only eight receptions for 74 yards and zero scores over his past two contests. McLaurin started off this week not practicing, though he now seems on track to play Sunday at Green Bay after participating in two straight sessions.

  • Returns to limited practice

    McLaurin (hamstring) was limited at Thursday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin wasn't added to Washington's Week 6 injury report until Friday as a non-participant due to a hamstring issue. He was able to gut it out this past Sunday against the Chiefs, but despite playing 95 percent of the offensive snaps he hauled in four of eight targets for a season-low 28 yards. Now, during Week 7 prep, McLaurin kicked it off with an absence Wednesday, likely to manage the aforementioned health concern. He'll have one more chance to put in a full session Friday, at which point…read more

  • Back at practice

    McLaurin (hamstring) resumed practicing Thursday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin didn't practice Wednesday, but his return to the field for Thursday's session suggests that his absence could have been maintenance-related. Washington's upcoming injury report will reveal McLaurin's official participation level, though the wideout likely will need to practice fully by the end of the week in order to avoid a Week 7 injury designation.

  • Tending to hamstring issue

    McLaurin didn't practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin was a late addition to Washington's Week 6 injury report due to a hamstring issue, but it didn't stop him from playing his usual allotment of snaps en route to a season-low 28 receiving yards this past Sunday against the Chiefs. Washington is likely managing McLaurin's health to ensure he's OK for game day, but his status nonetheless should be watched to make sure he's good to go for Sunday's contest at Green Bay.

  • Slowed in Week 6

    McLaurin recorded four receptions on eight targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to Kansas City.

    Analysis: McLaurin was questionable for the contest with a hamstring injury, and it's possible he was still bothered by the issue. Washington also failed to get any offense going, as Taylor Heinicke passed for just 182 yards and one touchdown. McLaurin has now been held quiet for consecutive games, though he has racked up 19 targets in that span. That provides some hope that he can rebound in Week 7 against the Packers.

  • Cleared for matchup with KC

    McLaurin (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: McLaurin was a late addition to Washington's Week 6 injury report, as the team opted to hold him out of Friday's session due to the hamstring issue. Head coach Ron Rivera suggested McLaurin's lack of participation Friday was precautionary more than anything, and now that he's avoided the inactive list, the wideout should fill his normal role as quarterback Taylor Heinicke's top target.

  • Likely to play Sunday

    McLaurin (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin missed Friday's practice due to a hamstring injury, but head coach Ron Rivera said it was due to an "abundance of caution" rather than a significant injury. Still, fantasy managers will want to check McLaurin's status before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday.

  • Positive news regarding injury

    John Keim of ESPN.com reports McLaurin is "feeling good" after injuring his hamstring Friday. The third-year wide receiver is currently listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: It's hardly much to go on, but any positive news is something to report given McLaurin's injury occurred during Friday's practice, putting his status for Sunday somewhat in doubt. Washington did elevate wide receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden ahead of the aforementioned matchup, but the team has already ruled out both Curtis Samuel (groin) and Cam Sims (hamstring), while Dyami Brown (knee) is also listed as questionable, so it's hardly a one-for-one replacement. If McLaurin is able to play, the…read more

  • Should play despite late injury

    McLaurin (hamstring) should be able to play this Sunday, despite being added to the injury report Friday and listed as questionable for a matchup with Kansas City, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Speaking after Friday's practice, coach Ron Rivera said it was an "abundance of caution" that led to McLaurin being held out of the session and added to the injury report. It actually was a hamstring injury that caused McLaurin's absence, but perhaps just a minor one given Rivera's attempt to downplay it. Still, the timing and missed practice create concern, and fantasy managers should be prepared for multiple scenarios even if McLaurin appears better than 50/50 to suit up ahead of the 1 p.m.…read more

  • Injures hammy, deemed questionable

    McLaurin is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs after missing Friday's practice with a new hamstring injury, Matthew Paras of The Washington Times reports.

    Analysis: It's the first time he's been listed on the injury report this year, two days before a game against the defending AFC champs. That's far from ideal, obviously, for an injury-riddled Washington offense that's already missing WR Curtis Samuel (groin), WR Cam Sims (hamstring) and TE Logan Thomas (IR/hamstring), not to mention QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (IR/hip) and two O-line starters (RT Samuel Cosmi, RG Brandon Scherff). Even rookie wideout Dyami Brown (knee) is listed as questionable, leaving Adam…read more

  • Spotted with training staff

    McLaurin spent time with the training staff during Friday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It doesn't necessarily mean he's injured, but multiple beat writers have mentioned it. They also said that McLaurin rejoined his teammates on the main field at Friday's practice, so it remains to be seen if he's even listed on the injury report. He wasn't listed Wednesday or Thursday and hasn't missed any practice time yet this season.

  • Held in check Sunday

    McLaurin caught four of 11 targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: The third-year wideout was Taylor Heinicke's favorite option on the day once again, but he wasn't able to do much with the volume as the New Orleans secondary made a point of not letting McLaurin beat them. The yardage was a season low, but he's seen double-digit targets in three of Heinicke's four starts heading into a potentially juicy Week 6 clash with Kansas City.

  • Scores twice in comeback win

    McLaurin caught six of 13 targets for 123 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Falcons.

    Analysis: McLaurin hauled in fewer than half of the balls thrown his way but made the most out of his catches. He got Washington on the board with a 33-yard touchdown in the second quarter, then scored the first of two Washington touchdowns in the final four minutes of the fourth from 17 yards out. After watching his touchdown total plummet from seven as a rookie to four last season, the third-year wide receiver out of Ohio State has already scored three times through four games. McLaurin will have a…read more

  • Limited to four grabs

    McLaurin brought in four of seven targets for 62 yards in Washington's 43-21 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Analysis: McLaurin unsurprisingly paced Washington in targets while tying Logan Thomas for the team lead in receptions. The speedy third-year wideout's line matched his Week 1 tally, with his 11-catch, 107-yard, one-touchdown effort versus the Giants in Week 2 the outlier thus far through three weeks. McLaurin will look to get back to that type of production when Washington tangles with the Falcons on the road Week 4.

  • Paces pass catchers in win

    McLaurin secured 11 of 14 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Washington's 30-29 win over the Giants on Thursday night.

    Analysis: The speedy third-year man was unsurprisingly Taylor Heinicke's top target throughout the night, and he contributed several key receptions. McLaurin came down with a contested 11-yard touchdown grab early in the second quarter, and he also notched a six-yard catch to move the ball to the Giants' 30 on the offense's penultimate play from scrimmage during Washington's game-winning drive. Through two games, McLaurin has now recorded 15 receptions for 169 yards, and his rapport with Heinicke on…read more

  • Second-half surge not enough

    McLaurin caught all four of his targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: 34 of McLaurin's 62 yards came on a poor pass from Taylor Heinicke that was inexplicably whiffed on mid-air by a Chargers defender, setting up a pretty sideline catch. Washington made a concerted effort to involve McLaurin in the offense to start the second half, setting up three of his four catches to start the third, but he was curiously absent from the gameplan the rest of the way. Who McLaurin will be catching passes from in future weeks will be something to monitor as starting quarterback…read more

  • Unlikely to play Saturday

    McLaurin and a slew of other key players likely will be held out of Saturday's preseason game against Baltimore, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: The list also includes RB Antonio Gibson, TE Logan Thomas and WRs Dyami Brown and Adam Humphries. The Washington offense appears in much better shape than last season, though key offseason addition Curtis Samuel (groin) still hasn't practiced since early June. Regardless of Samuel's availability, McLaurin is the centerpiece of Washington's passing game heading into a Week 1 home date with the Chargers.

  • Targeted three times

    McLaurin caught two of three targets for 25 yards in Thursday's 22-12 preseason loss to New England.

    Analysis: McLaurin had a 22-yard gain on the second play of the game and ultimately accounted for three of Ryan Fitzpatrick's eight targets. The star wideout will see plenty of looks in any scenario, but he could really be busy early in the season if Curtis Samuel's absence extends past August. Washington's big offseason acquisition has been on the PUP list since the start of training camp, bothered by the same groin injury that kept him out of offseason practices in early-to-mid June. Next up for…read more

  • Training with Doug Baldwin

    McLaurin recently worked with former Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin to improve his releases off the line of scrimmage, independent NFL journalist Mark Bullock reports.

    Analysis: During his career, Baldwin made a living with toughness, technique and reliable hands, while McLaurin is far more physically gifted, having run a 4.35-second 40-yard dash at 6-foot-2, 208 pounds. The third-year pro has also proven himself to be a quick learner in the NFL, with rapid improvement on short and intermediate routes allowing him to put up 1,118 receiving yards in 15 games last season despite playing in an offense with minimal downfield passing. The hope in Washington is that veteran…read more

  • Solid effort in season-ending loss

    McLaurin (ankle) brought in six of seven targets for 75 yards in Washington's 31-23 wild-card loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday night.

    Analysis: The second-year speedster was second to Cam Sims in receptions and receiving yards during Washington' season-ending loss. McLaurin powered through an ankle issue in Week 17 and Saturday night, managing to still put together a combined 13-115-1 line in that pair of contests. Having eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark during the regular season for the first time in his career while also setting a new high-water mark in receptions (87), McLaurin will look to reach even greater heights in 2021 with what…read more

  • Taking field Saturday

    McLaurin (ankle) is listed as active Saturday versus the Buccaneers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin managed two limited practices this week, which was two more than he logged prior to taking the field Week 17. In that contest, he put up seven catches (on eight targets) for 40 yards and one touchdown on the Eagles. The going may be tougher Saturday against a Tampa Bay defense that has given up 8.0 yards per target to wide receivers this season (tied for 14th best in the NFL).

  • Questionable for Saturday

    McLaurin (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Buccaneers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin didn't practice at all last week but still gutted out a high-ankle sprain Week 17 against the Eagles, hauling in seven of eight targets for 40 yards and one touchdown. He got in some reps on the practice field this week, but his status won't be confirmed until about 90 minutes before Saturday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. If he takes the field, McLaurin should be among Alex Smith's (calf) top targets, assuming the QB also is directing the offense.

    McLaurin (ankle) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin didn't practice at all last week and was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated report. He's now ahead of where he was at the same time last week before he went on to catch seven of eight targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in the division-clinching win over Philadelphia. McLaurin, Alex Smith (calf) and Antonio Gibson (toe) are banged up, but all three appear likely to continue playing through their injuries in Saturday's wild-card game against Tampa Bay.

    McLaurin (ankle) took part in the team stretch before going to a side field during Wednesday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin didn't practice at all last week while managing a high-ankle sprain, but he still suited up in the regular-season finale, logging 81 percent of the offensive snaps en route to seven catches (on eight targets) for 40 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's win over the Eagles. He was a non-participant Tuesday, and if his activity level Wednesday is any indication, he seems poised to be listed the same way on the official practice report.

  • Managing ankle issue

    McLaurin (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's practice estimate, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The same applies to running back Antonio Gibson (toe). Given that both players played through their respective issues in Washington's Week 17 win over the Eagles, it's likely that the duo's Tuesday listing is indicative of both key skill players simply managing their injuries as Saturday night's playoff opener against the Buccaneers approaches.

  • Returns and scores in big win

    McLaurin (ankle) reeled in seven of eight targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-14 win over the Eagles. He finishes the regular season with 87 receptions, 1,118 yards and four touchdowns in 15 games.

    Analysis: McLaurin toughed it out to return quickly from a high-ankle sprain -- which typically requires 4-to-6 weeks to fully recover from -- and help Alex Smith and Co. push the 7-9 Washington Football Team into the playoffs. The talented wideout dealt with mediocre quarterback play for the entirety of the season, as an aging Smith, whose leg is literally being held together by bolts and screws, was the team's best option under center. The fact that McLaurin managed to eclipse the 1,000-yard mark is a…read more

  • Playing Sunday

    McLaurin (ankle) is listed as active Sunday at Philadelphia, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

    Analysis: Amazingly, McLaurin will miss just one game as a result of a high-ankle sprain. It remains to be seen whether he'll be a diversion or actually modestly involved in the offense, but with a variety of signal-callers this season, he's averaged nine targets per game. In this contest, McLaurin will be on the receiving end of passes from Alex Smith, who himself is attempting to gut it out through a strained right calf.

  • Intends to play Sunday

    McLaurin (ankle), who is listed as questionable, plans to play in Sunday's game against the Eagles, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin sat out last week's loss to the Panthers due to a high-ankle sprain, which typically takes around six weeks to recover from. He was unable to practice this week, although McLaurin did work on the side and received praise from coach Ron Rivera. With a must-win game on tap, it sounds like McLaurin will give it a go. However, Jhabvala reiterated that McLaurin likely will be playing through some degree of pain and may even be limited to an extent if he is ultimately active.

Washington heads into Sunday's game with all of McLaurin, quarterback Alex Smith (calf) and running back Antonio Gibson (toe) listed as questionable, making it difficult to project what the offense will look like in the team's most important game of the season.

    McLaurin (ankle) isn't practicing Friday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Washington head coach Ron Rivera said McLaurin looked good while working with the training staff Thursday, but that doesn't necessarily mean the wideout will be ready to go ahead of Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. McLaurin is absent from practice for a third straight day, making it two weeks in a row with no participation. He wasn't able to play in the loss to Carolina last week, and he'll presumably have a designation when Washington releases its final Week 17 injury report later Friday.

  • Takes 'positive step' Thursday

    Coach Ron Rivera said Thursday that McLaurin, who hasn't practiced this week due to a high-ankle sprain, "looked good" and "moved around" Thursday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports. "It was a positive step," Rivera added. "We'll see how he feels tomorrow."

    Analysis: During the open part of practice, McLaurin put in some time with Washington's training staff on the side, per John Keim of ESPN.com. Despite this and Rivera's comments, McLaurin has yet to make a noticeable step in his recovery from an injury that typically sidelines a player for multiple games. Still, Rivera seems to be holding out hope McLaurin will make a leap and put himself into a position to play Sunday in Philadelphia, a game that has postseason implications.

Still, Gibson's situation is one of managing his health concern, while McLaurin is working his way back from a high-ankle sprain, which typically sidelines a player for multiple weeks.

    Analysis: Though head coach Ron Rivera hasn't closed the door on McLaurin suiting up Sunday against the Eagles, the wideout is probably closer to doubtful than questionable for the contest at this point after he was unable to practice with the main group Wednesday and Thursday while managing the high-ankle sprain. If McLaurin's ankle responds well to rehab work Thursday, he could be cleared to get in some practice reps Friday, but at the very least, he'll carry an injury designation into the…read more

    Analysis: During the media-access portion of the session, McLaurin was spotted doing some work with the training staff on a side field while his healthy teammates were practicing. The Washington rehab group has been extensive recently, with Wednesday's list of non-participants including three other starters on offense in quarterback Alex Smith (calf), running back Antonio Gibson (toe) and left guard Wes Schweitzer (hip).

    McLaurin (ankle) worked out on a side field with trainers during Wednesday's practice, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Ron Rivera relayed Monday that McLaurin suffered a high-ankle sprain Week 15 against the Seahawks and hasn't been able to get back on the field in the meantime. Rivera also noted that he wanted to hold practice outdoors this week to allow McLaurin to fit in some jogging, per Sam Fortier of The Washington Post. Because of the nature of the injury, McLaurin may be hard-pressed to make an appearance Sunday in Philadelphia, but with a playoff berth on the line, he'll at least attempt to…read more

  • Dealing with high-ankle sprain

    Coach Ron Rivera said Monday that McLaurin is nursing a high-ankle sprain, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Rivera noted that McLaurin suffered the injury while making a catch Week 15 against Seattle, per John Keim of ESPN.com, and he's been sidelined since. The second-year wideout is currently in a walking boot, and he was forced to spectate this past weekend's 20-13 loss to the Panthers from the booth rather than on the sidelines because team doctors recommended he not stand. High-ankle sprains often require a multi-week recovery timetable, making McLaurin's status for Week 17's must-win road game…read more

    McLaurin (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Washington will be without its top wide receiver for the first time this season due to the ankle issue that has hindered McLaurin since late November. He averages 9.5 targets per game, which now will filter down to the likes of Logan Thomas, J.D. McKissic and Cam Sims.

    McLaurin (ankle), who is listed as doubtful, isn't expected to play Sunday versus Carolina, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old was labeled doubtful when Washington released its injury report Friday, and it appears his outlook hasn't improved halfway through the weekend. Running back Antonio Gibson (toe) is likely to suit up despite being considered questionable, and quarterback Alex Smith (calf) is also listed as questionable for the Football Team.

McLaurin, on the other hand, isn't expected to play, though his doubtful designation leaves the door open for him to suit up in case his ankle improves over the final 48 hours before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Having said that, Washington may be giving the wide receiver a respite from the ankle issue that's plagued him since late November.

    Analysis: McLaurin also failed to practice Wednesday due to the ankle injury, which he's been playing through since late November. Though he has yet to miss any games because of the issue, McLaurin's production has taken a notable hit in December, with the wideout being held to 11 receptions for 115 yards and no touchdowns on 24 targets through three games this month.

    McLaurin missed Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The team has been listing McLaurin with an ankle issue since the end of November, coinciding with a three-game stretch where he's caught only 11 of 24 targets for 115 yards. His ankle may be partially to blame, but McLaurin has also faced a run of tough matchups, though he caught seven passes for 77 yards against Seattle in Week 15. He'll likely continue to play through the ankle injury Sunday against the Panthers, assuming he makes it back to practice in some capacity Thursday and/or Friday.

    McLaurin brought in seven of 12 targets for 77 yards in Washington's 20-15 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Analysis: McLaurin checked in second to Logan Thomas in targets on the afternoon, but he was the subject of plenty of Dwayne Haskins' attention in the latter's return to the starting quarterback job. McLaurin's yardage total was also behind only that of Thomas', and the elevated production was a welcome sight for fantasy managers after the second-year wideout had produced a paltry 4-38-0 line over the previous pair of contests.

  • Catches two of six targets

    McLaurin caught two of six targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 23-15 win over the 49ers.

    Analysis: McLaurin faced a difficult matchup in this one and things got worse when Alex Smith (calf) departed with a minor injury in the second quarter. The second-year wideout has had a rough go of it over the last two games as he's hauled in just four of 12 targets for 38 yards with no touchdowns. Assuming Smith is able to play next Sunday against the Seahawks, McLaurin will have an excellent chance to bounce back against one of the most porous secondaries in the league.

Coming off a sparse performance Monday in Pittsburgh -- two catches (on six targets) for 14 yards -- he'll be looking to get back in the mix Sunday afternoon.

    Analysis: McLaurin has been dealing with an ankle injury since Thanksgiving week, but he's suited up in back-to-back contests on his way to a 9-106-0 line on 15 targets. However, the nadir of his season occurred this past Monday at Pittsburgh, when he was held to two catches (on six targets) for 14 yards. Assuming he can get past the health concern yet again this week, McLaurin will seek a bounce-back effort Sunday in San Francisco.

    McLaurin caught two of six targets for 14 yards in Monday's 23-17 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: McLaurin had his worst game in arguably Washington's biggest win of the season. The speedster was always bound to draw considerable attention from Pittsburgh's secondary, but after having posted at least 80 yards in five straight outings entering Monday, McLaurin's dud performance still was hard to foresee. As one of the league's more consistent producers through the air, McLaurin will aim to get back on track Week 14 versus the 49ers.

    McLaurin (ankle) is expected to play in Monday's game against the Steelers, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin is listed as questionable, though his full practice participation Saturday was a strong sign he'd be ready for the game. He played through the same ankle injury last Thursday, when he caught seven passes for 92 yards against the Cowboys, giving him a sixth straight game with five or more receptions and 74 or more yards. McLaurin played 90 percent of offensive snaps in last week's blowout win, so he should be set for a full workload Monday night.

    McLaurin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Steelers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin managed to practice fully Saturday so fantasy managers shouldn't have much concern regarding his status for the prime-time contest. Despite the difficult matchup, it's hard to lower McLaurin's fantasy status. The second-year wideout has commanded at least seven targets in every game this season and currently ranks fourth among wide receivers in terms of respective team target shares (27.3 percent).

    McLaurin was a limited participant in Friday's practice due to an ankle injury, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

    Analysis: The ankle injury previously rendered McLaurin questionable ahead of Washington's Thanksgiving Day victory over the Cowboys, but he ultimately received active status and finished with seven receptions for 92 yards. He apparently hasn't completely shaken the ankle issue, but if he's able to upgrade to full participation at Saturday's practice, there won't be any real reason to worry about his availability for a Monday night matchup with Pittsburgh.

    McLaurin caught seven of nine targets for 92 yards in Thursday's 41-16 win over the Cowboys.

McLaurin is closing in on his first career 1,000-yard campaign and has topped 80 yards with at least five catches in five straight games, but both streaks could be in jeopardy in Week 13's road tilt with the undefeated Steelers.

He's handled over 90 percent of offensive snaps in all but one of his 10 appearances this season, though, so it's possible that the Football Team is simply giving the star wideout some rest ahead of a Thanksgiving Day contest in Dallas.

The deep shot resulted in his longest gain of the season and got him into the end zone for the first time since Week 2.

    Analysis: McLaurin showed off his big-play ability, racking up receptions of 33, 21, 15 and 14 yards. He's also shown the ability to accrue plenty of volume as well, seeing no fewer than seven targets in any of Washington's three contests this season. Despite a largely inefficient offense, McLaurin has shown the ability to excel as Dwayne Haskins' top target. However, he'll face a stiff test in Week 4 as Washington takes on Baltimore.

  • Big day in loss to Cards

    McLaurin caught seven of 10 targets for 125 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 30-15 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: He caught a fourth-quarter pass from Dwayne Haskins on a slant route and took it 24 yards for Washington's first TD, but McLaurin was his team's most dangerous weapon all day. The second-year receiver should see high volume again in Week 3 against a Browns defense that just allowed Tyler Boyd to rack up seven catches for 72 yards and a score.

  • Makes five receptions vs. Eagles

    McLaurin caught five of seven targets for 61 yards during Sunday's 27-17 win over the Eagles.

    Analysis: McLaurin drew plenty of attention from Philadelphia cornerback Darius Slay, but he still managed to lead the team in catches and receiving yards, though that could speak more to the lack of other playmakers on the Washington offense. Still, it was encouraging to see McLaurin post a respectable stat line against a worthy opponent given the team's lack of consistent quarterback play in recent years. The second-year wideout will look to build on a solid debut next Sunday in what should be a more…read more

  • Practicing with Haskins

    McLaurin (concussion) has been working out in Virginia with teammates Dwayne Haskins, Steven Sims and Kelvin Harmon, Zach Selby of the Redskins' official site reports.

    Analysis: Each of the four was a rookie last season and a key part of the Washington passing game late in the year. McLaurin, of course, was by far the most impressive of the bunch, putting up 409 yards and five touchdowns through his first five games en route to finishing the year with 919 receiving yards in 14 appearances. He missed Week 17 with a concussion, but there hasn't been any suggestion that the head injury impacted his offseason routine. While Sims and Harmon may need to battle for roles…read more

  • Out for Week 17

    McLaurin (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Dallas, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin hasn't been able to practice since he suffered a concussion in the late stages of a Week 16 overtime loss to the Giants. He'll thus finish his rookie campaign with 58 catches for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on 93 targets in 14 games, producing a 62.4 percent catch rate and 9.9 yards per target in a Washington offense that's completed 63.3 percent of its passes for 6.8 yards per attempt. McLaurin managed the impressive stat line despite struggling with drops and battling a hamstring…read more

  • Not practicing Friday

    McLaurin (concussion) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, Craig Hoffman of 106.7 The Fan Washington reports.

    Analysis: It's possible McLaurin could get some work in behind the scenes later in the day, but he'll likely go down as a non-participant on the Redskins' injury report for the third day in a row. The rookie wideout doesn't look like he'll be available for Sunday's game in Dallas.

  • Fails to practice Thursday

    McLaurin (concussion) was listed as a non-participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Per Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic, Washington hasn't ruled McLaurin out for their Week 17 matchup with the Cowboys, as the team is instead viewing the rookie as day-to-day while he remains in the concussion protocol. That being said, McLaurin would likely need to return to practice in at least a limited fashion Friday to have a realistic shot at suiting up Sunday. Washington would likely rely more heavily on Steven Sims, Kelvin Harmon and Cam Sims as the primary options in three-receiver sets…read more

  • Not stretching Thursday

    McLaurin (concussion) wasn't present at team stretches prior to Thursday's practice, Rhiannon Walker of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: It's difficult for any player to get through the concussion protocol in one week, and another absence from McLaurin on Thursday would put him behind the eight ball for an appearance Sunday at Dallas. Thursday's injury report will reveal whether or not the rookie wide receiver got in any on-field work.

  • Goes down as 'DNP' on report

    McLaurin (concussion) was listed as a non-participant Wednesday on the Redskins' estimated practice report, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Washington's decision not to label McLaurin as a limited or full participant on their first report of Week 17 suggests the receiver has yet to take a notable step forward in the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. The head injury spelled an early end to McLaurin's day in Sunday's 41-35 overtime loss to the Giants, but he made his mark earlier in the game with seven receptions for 86 yards on nine targets. The Redskins will see how McLaurin progresses over the next couple of days before…read more

  • Placed in concussion protocol

    McLaurin has been placed in the league's concussion protocol, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: McLaurin didn't practice Tuesday, and the reason for his absence wasn't known at the time. It's not clear what type of symptoms McLaurin is dealing with, but he'll need to clear the protocol in order to play Week 17, and Washington figures to proceed with caution given that the team has nothing to play for but draft position.

  • May have suffered injury

    McLaurin (undisclosed) wasn't present at Tuesday's unofficial practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: According to Standig, McLaurin was "dinged [up] late" during a Week 16 overtime loss to the Giants. Washington didn't get the ball during the extra session, so McLaurin's last play was a five-yard catch just after the two-minute warning. No injury has been mentioned in the wake of the contest, and because the team won't release a practice report until Wednesday, his health likely won't be touched on until that point.

  • Logs 86 receiving yards

    McLaurin caught seven of nine targets for 86 yards during Sunday's 41-35 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: McLaurin finished second on the team in targets while pacing the group in receptions and receiving yards. He broke off a long gain of 34 yards and thrived even though Case Keenum split time under center with Dwayne Haskins. McLaurin is now over 900 receiving yards for the season and will look to cap an impressive rookie campaign next Sunday against a beatable Eagles pass defense.

  • Torches Eagles again

    McLaurin caught all five of his targets for 130 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-27 loss to Philadelphia.

    Analysis: McLaurin got behind the defense for a 75-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. That was the outstanding rookie's seventh touchdown of the season, as McLaurin has demonstrated a tremendous combination of ball skills and speed. His 130 receiving yards set a new career high, surpassing the 125 yards McLaurin posted against these same Eagles back in Week 1. McLaurin will take a two-game touchdown streak into a Week 16 matchup against a vulnerable Giants secondary.

  • Boosts production in loss

    McLaurin secured four of seven targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in the Redskins' 20-15 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Analysis: McLaurin led the Redskins in receiving yardage with his modest total, and he found the end zone for the first time since Week 6 against the Dolphins with an acrobatic one-handed grab in tight coverage. Despite dealing with plenty of instability and inexperience at the quarterback position, McLaurin has at least Sunday's 57 receiving yards in three of the last four contests, and his production against the Packers pushed him over the 700-yard mark for the campaign. McLaurin will look to build on…read more

  • Contributes eight yards in loss

    McLaurin caught two of four targets for eight yards during Sunday's 29-21 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Although his team pulled off a terrific road victory, McLaurin was limited to one reception that gained 11 yards and another that lost three. This dud performance comes at an unfortunate time for owners of McLaurin, who had totaled 141 receiving yards on 16 targets over his last two games. The talented rookie will look to get back on track next Sunday against the Packers.

  • Delivers clutch conversion in win

    McLaurin caught five of 12 targets for 72 yards during Sunday's 19-16 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: McLaurin's 12 targets set a season high. Though he doesn't hold quite the same value as he did earlier this season when veteran Case Keenum was lofting up passes to him in the end zone, the rookie is still Washington's most consistent pass-catcher and has rapport with fellow rookie Buckeye Dwayne Haskins. That was on display in the closing seconds of Sunday's win, when, facing third down, Haskins drove a 17-yard pass down the field to McLaurin, setting up the game-winning field goal. Sunday…read more

  • Team's top receiver in Week 11

    McLaurin caught three of four targets for 69 receiving yards during Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: The rookie receiver out of Ohio State is a big play waiting to happen and did not disappoint Week 11 against New York's bottom-10 pass defense, flashing with 20- and 41-yard receptions on the afternoon. McLaurin also had a 67-yard catch on Washington's third offensive drive of the day, but the gain was wiped out by a holding penalty on Brandon Scherff. While he had been held under 55 receiving yards in three straight outings prior to Week 11, expectations for McLaurin should remain high heading…read more

  • Another quiet outing in Week 9 loss

    McLaurin hauled in four of six targets and accounted for 39 receiving yards during Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: The rookie wideout accounted for at least 51 receiving yards in each of his first five appearances of the year while scoring five times. However, over the past three weeks against San Francisco, Minnesota and Buffalo, he's managed only three catches per game for an average output of 29.7 yards. Washington's offense has been stuck in the mud, and McLaurin's production has been stifled as a result, with the Redskins now having gone 13 consecutive quarters without reaching the end zone.
