The Washington Commanders have been without top wide receiver Terry McLaurin for the last two games because of a quadriceps injury.<\/p>\n

McLaurin suffered the injury in Week 3 and that has sidelined him in each of the past two weeks. Thankfully, it looks like he has a chance to play in Week 6 against the Chicago Bears.<\/p>\n

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn revealed on Monday that he’s “optimistic” that McLaurin will play<\/a> against Chicago.<\/p>\n

“Quinn said he’s ‘optimistic’ about Terry McLaurin for this week and reiterates that he and others — Noah Brown, Sam Cosmi — are trending in the right direction. Having the extra day helps,” ESPN’s John Keim reported.<\/p>\n

Of course, the Commanders play on Monday night, so that gives McLaurin an extra day to get ready, which only increases his chances of suiting up.<\/p>\n

With McLaurin out once again on Sunday, quarterback Jayden Daniels relied upon 2025 stalwart Deebo Samuel, who has been fantastic this season. Guys like Luke McCaffrey, Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jaylin Lane also chipped in.<\/p>\n

With how well Samuel has played this season, the Commanders are going to be absolutely stacked at wide receiver once McLaurin and Noah Brown are healthy.<\/p>\n

Things are definitely looking up in Washington now that the dust is settling from Washington’s early-season injury woes.<\/p>\n
