Commanders WR Terry McLaurin ‘frustrated’ over contract, uncertain for camp

Washington Commanders receiver Terry McLaurin said he hasn’t decided whether he will attend the opening week of training camp next week, telling reporters on Tuesday that he is “pretty frustrated” about the lack of movement on contract talks with the team.
The star wideout skipped mandatory minicamp last month and broke his silence on Tuesday, expressing his unhappiness over the lack of a new deal.
“I’ve been pretty frustrated, I’m not gonna lie,” McLaurin told reporters. “Everything that has transpired up to this point has been disappointing and frustrating. I’ve wanted to continue my career here. I’ve created my life here. My wife and I bought our first home here, so this is somewhere where I’ve always wanted to be.”
McLaurin has one year remaining on his three-year, $68 million contract extension. His status for next week’s training camp remains unclear.
“I’m trying to take things day by day,” McLaurin said. “I think that’s the disappointing part where I was hoping up until this point that things would clear up a lot more than they have. I haven’t made that decision yet. I just want to see how the rest of this week goes and take it day by day and go from there.”
McLaurin caught 82 passes for 1,096 yards and had a career-high 13 touchdowns last season. He was a critical piece in Washington’s playoff run to the NFC Championship Game, catching 14 passes for 227 yards and scoring three touchdowns in three postseason games.
