If we look at how GM Adam Peters structured McLaurin's new deal in the summer of 2025, I think the writing was on the wall even prior to this most recent injury. Friends, I believe we have seen the last of Terry McLaurin in a Washington jersey.

Contract structure and injury history suggest McLaurin's time with Washington is over after 2026.

The source believes McLaurin's contract structure—negotiated in summer 2025 with $45M guaranteed ($30M in signing bonus and 2025-2026 base salaries, with 2027-2028 unguaranteed except for injury language)—signals the team's exit strategy. With a post-June 1 release in 2027 creating only $6M dead cap against $28M in savings, and given McLaurin will be 32 years old at the start of 2027 with recent knee injury history, the source concludes: 'I believe we have seen the last of Terry McLaurin in a Washington jersey.' A new head coach (Dan Quinn likely departing) may not see McLaurin in the team's future plans.
