Terry McLaurin Fantasy

Washington Redskins interim head coach Bill Callahan has ruled out rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin (concussion) and safety Landon Collins (shoulder) for Week 17 against the Cowboys. McLaurin will finish his impressive first year in the NFL just short of 1,000 yards receiving (919). He caught 58 passes (93 targets) and scored seven times. If quarterback Dwayne Haskins can improve in 2020, McLaurin will have high-end upside in just his second season for fantasy owners. With him out in the season finale, the Redskins will be forced to go with rookies Steven Sims Jr. and Kelvin Harmon as their top wideouts. Collins' absence is bad news for a Washington secondary that was already pretty weak. It's great news for Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and his wideouts in a must-win game.

Washington Redskins rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol after suffering a head injury after a catch late in the Week 16 game against the Giants. He will be re-evaluated on Thursday. McLaurin has been the team's most dynamic playmaker all season long, but his status for the season finale against the Cowboys will be in question. The 24-year-old third-round pick has touchdowns in two of his last three games and had a season-high seven catches for 86 yards last weekend. He had five catches for 62 yards and a score back on Sept. 15 against the Cowboys and would have WR2 upside if he suits up. McLaurin needs just 81 yards for 1,000 in his first season. Steven Sims Jr. would be Washington's No. 1 receiver if McLaurin doesn't get cleared.

Washington Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin was targeted nine times in Sunday's game against the Giants. He caught seven of them for 86 yards, but was held out of the endzone in a game that otherwise featured a ton of scoring. McLaurin remains the primary receiving option in this offense, and that is not influenced by whether Case Keenum or Dwayne Haskins is at quarterback. The rookie will look to close out a strong first season in the NFL against a reeling Cowboys team in Week 17.
