Sources - Unhappy Terry McLaurin doesn't report to Commanders camp - ESPN

ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Commanders receiver Terry McLaurin, who last week expressed frustration with negotiations for a contract extension, failed to report to training camp Tuesday, sources told ESPN.

McLaurin was not present for the Commanders' conditioning test Tuesday that marked an unofficial start of training camp.

McLaurin said last week that «without any progressive discussions, it's kind of hard to see how I step on the field.» He also said the sides had not talked in more than a month. By not reporting, McLaurin will be fined $50,000 for each day missed.

Several notable receivers signed long-term deals this offseason, including the Cincinnati Bengals' Tee Higgins (four years, $115 million with $40.9 million guaranteed), Pittsburgh Steelers' DK Metcalf (four years, $132 million with $60 million guaranteed) and the New York Jets' Garrett Wilson (four years, $130 million, $90 million guaranteed).

McLaurin has been Washington's top receiver since entering the NFL as a third-round pick in 2019. He has surpassed 1,000 yards each of the past five seasons and caught 13 touchdown passes last season — second most in the NFL.

He's also considered a team leader — he was voted by teammates as a captain during the postseason last year (they rotated captains during the regular
