Current contract: $23.2 million per year through 2025<\/p>\n
It might seem like only yesterday that we were talking about Washington needing to pay McLaurin, but it was actually many more days than that; 1,072, to be exact, since he signed the extension<\/a> he is currently set to play out in 2025. And those 1,072 days have been, uh, eventful for the Commanders. Back in the summer of 2022, McLaurin was one of the few good things going in Washington, and the Commanders would have been foolish not to extend him. Three years later, the Commanders would again be foolish not to extend him<\/a>, but thankfully, they have many more good things going, starting with the total franchise rebirth sparked by Dan Quinn and \ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeffJayden Daniels<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff. McLaurin was as reliably productive as ever in 2024, becoming one of just four players (along with \ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeffDavante Adams<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff, \ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeffMike Evans<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff and \ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeffJustin Jefferson<\/a>\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff\ufeff) to clock 1,000-plus receiving yards in each of the past five seasons. And for the first time in McLaurin’s career, all that production pushed his team to a winning record, giving the Pro Bowler a chance to feast on the playoff stage (14 catches for 227 yards and three TDs) during a thrilling Washington run that ended on Championship Sunday. The Commanders need McLaurin to make the most of the window of contention that Daniels flung open.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Current contract: $23.2 million per year through 2025 It might seem like only yesterday that we were talking…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":104284,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3],"tags":[90,1842,117,53,256,257,258,7,2310,3027,110,895,262,491,255,6,1625,609,57,1526,5226,250,7186,4223,1503,111],"class_list":{"0":"post-104283","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-analysis","9":"tag-baker-mayfield","10":"tag-baltimore-ravens","11":"tag-buffalo-bills","12":"tag-cincinnati-bengals","13":"tag-dallas-cowboys","14":"tag-denver-broncos","15":"tag-football","16":"tag-garrett-wilson","17":"tag-james-cook","18":"tag-kansas-city-chiefs","19":"tag-lamar-jackson","20":"tag-los-angeles-chargers","21":"tag-micah-parsons","22":"tag-new-york-jets","23":"tag-nfl","24":"tag-nik-bonitto","25":"tag-no-minute","26":"tag-pittsburgh-steelers","27":"tag-rashawn-slater","28":"tag-t-j-watt","29":"tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers","30":"tag-terry-mclaurin","31":"tag-trent-mcduffie","32":"tag-trey-hendrickson","33":"tag-washington-commanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104283","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104283"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104283\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104283"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104283"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104283"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
