NFL Insider Drops Concerning Update on Terry McLaurin's Situation

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Mandatory minicamp is around the corner for the Washington Commanders and Terry McLaurin still doesn't have an extension in place. While McLaurin's absence at minicamp wasn't a major red flag, considering the sessions weren't mandatory, it was clear that his lack of presence was due to contract talks going quiet. So far, McLaurin's plans for the mandatory minicamp on June 10 are not known. While all signs are beginning to point to him not showing up unless another deal is agreed to, only time will tell if that's really the case. Either way, one NFL Insider's recent update on McLaurin paints a concerning picture. "I don't think it's in a great place right now," Albert Breer said on 106.7 The Fan in DC on Thursday. "If you ask me where this is, and I think it's just sort of, I hate to say normal course of things, but I do think to some degree these things do get bumpy." What is Albert Breer hearing about Terry McLaurin contract talks? "I don't think it's in a great place right now." — 106.7 The Fan (@1067theFan) June 5, 2025 McLaurin just earned his highest honor as an NFL wide receiver in 2024, getting named Second-Team All-Pro. He earned that nod amid his second Pro Bowl campaign. Playing with first-year quarterback Jayden Daniels, McLaurin thrived by coming down with 82 catches for 1,096 yards. He scored a career-high 13 touchdowns, shattering his previous high, which was seven during his rookie season in 2019. Terry McLaurin #17 of the Washington Commanders runs the ball to score a touchdown in the second quarter of the game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field on January 26, 2025 in Philadelphia,... Terry McLaurin #17 of the Washington Commanders runs the ball to score a touchdown in the second quarter of the game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field on January 26, 2025 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Eagles beat the Commanders 55-23. More LaurenThis season, McLaurin is set to make $15.5 million. Beyond that, there are no guarantees in place. If McLaurin hit the free agency market, he would generate a major market, being that he's one of the most productive and consistent pass-catchers in the game. If the Commanders want to make sure they lock in McLaurin beyond this season, they'll have to come to the table with something around the $30 million mark, doubling his current salary, according to Breer. "I think it's fair of him to ask for something in that range, just based on where the market's gone," the Insider added. On a slightly positive note, the assumption is that McLaurin and the Commanders will get something done. Unfortunately, there could be some mess along the way. For a Commanders team that played without pressure in 2024, they thrived and shocked the football world by making a run to the 2024 NFC Championship game under the leadership of their rookie quarterback, Jayden Daniels. Now, the mood is a little different. The Commanders have an overachieving wideout who wants to get paid. The pressure is on for them to take a step forward after shattering expectations last season. Washington will likely do the right thing and pay McLaurin. Just how far will the talks go, though?

Trent Alexander-Arnold told he's still nowhere near as good as 35-year-old RB

England manager Thomas Tuchel has been told that Kyle Walker remains a better all-round player than former Liverpool star Trent Alexander-Arnold, as the Three Lions prepare to face Finland and Senegal over the next few days. Advertisement England has been blessed with top-quality right-backs in recent times, with Walker, 35, and Alexander-Arnold also facing competition from Chelsea's Reece James. Walker's club career took an unexpected turn this year, as he was sent to AC Milan on loan for the second half of the season — after reportedly being snubbed by Real Madrid — following a disappointing start to the campaign. Although Madrid wasn't keen on Walker, Alexander-Arnold has found a place on the Spanish team's roster. Liverpool acted quickly to replace him with Jeremie Frimpong, and the right-back's former Bayer Leverkusen teammate Florian Wirtz could also join the Reds.

Former England winger Chris Waddle suggested that Walker should get the nod. "It's a really strange one," Waddle said of Walker's current career situation while speaking to "He's been in and out of the team at Milan. "It was a good move to go there, and when I watch him play he clearly has the pace to deal with the top-level stuff, but he's still been an inconsistent starter. Kyle Walker and Trent Alexander-Arnold are among England's best right-backs "Now, that might be because he doesn't fit their tactics right now, or because they just played so many games, but even if it was a sensible move to make at the time, it hasn't quite gone as he'd have hoped. Advertisement "At the same time, it's hard to name a better English right-back. Trent Alexander-Arnold can be exceptional but he's not outstanding as a true defender. "He's got his talents, there's no denying it, with exceptional passing and dead-ball delivery, but if it's him or Walker, we're not blessed in that position for a young right-back who does what you expect. I think Kyle is the pick of the two right now, his all-round game puts him ahead of the rest." Alexander-Arnold's move from Liverpool to Real Madrid was confirmed at the end of May, with the Spanish club paying the Reds an $11 million transfer fee — despite the player's Liverpool contract being due to expire just a few weeks later. That's because Madrid wanted Alexander-Arnold to be part of Xabi Alonso's squad for the start of the Club World Cup, which gets under way in the middle of June. Madrid could have waited until July 1 to sign Alexander-Arnold on a free transfer, and he would have been eligible to play in Los Blancos' remaining games in the tournament, but the Spanish giant was keen for the player to have a period of integration in the weeks building up to the revamped event.
