News: 7 days agoMcLaurin caught his only target for three yards in Saturday's 20-17 preseason loss to the Jets.

Spin: McLaurin accounted for one of Jayden Daniels' two completions on the only drive that the rookie quarterback played. After topping 1,000 receiving yards in each of the previous four seasons, McLaurin projects to work as the top target for Daniels in 2024. The veteran wide receiver will look to keep building chemistry with the 2024 second overall pick in next Saturday's preseason game against the Dolphins.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: McLaurin's fifth NFL season looked quite a bit like his prior ones, as he crossed 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth consecutive campaign, quite the feat considering Washington's quarterback play during his career. This is a new era, with Jayden Daniels at quarterback, and that helps everyone. The consistent McLaurin has caught between 77 and 87 passes each of the past four seasons, and he has scored four or more touchdowns each season. What looked different in 2023 was how McLaurin got those numbers, with a career-worst 7.6 yards per target and 12.7 yards per reception. Fantasy managers can no longer comfortably choose the durable McLaurin as a WR2, as 27 wide receivers scored more fantasy points last season, but he isn't far from that range, either.
