Commanders' Terry McLaurin reacts to lack of Week 1 targets
Washington Commanders top receiver Terry McLaurin says there are "other ways you can affect the game" after having only two receptions in the opener.
Terry McLaurin, the star wide receiver for the Washington Commanders, expressed frustration after being a non-factor in the Commanders' season opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. McLaurin, who had just two catches for 14 yards, acknowledged that it can be tough when the ball isn't coming your way, especially in the opening game against a division rival.
However, rather than getting frustrated, McLaurin focuses on other ways to impact the game and stays positive. He believes that dwelling on missed opportunities or open targets can only lead to stress and self-criticism. Instead, he remains focused on his technique and stays ready for when his opportunity arrives. McLaurin's positive attitude and technique played a crucial role in the Commanders' 2024 season, as he had the most yards and receptions among active players.
If the Commanders hope to secure a win in their upcoming game against the Dallas Cowboys, McLaurin's involvement in the passing game will be essential.
