Terry McLaurin

McLaurin is primed for a bounce-back season in 2024. Last year, Sam Howell and his putrid passing sunk McLaurin's season. McLaurin still led the team with a 20.4% target share, a 34.7% air-yard share, 1.64 YPRR, and a 25.4% first-read share. Don't forget that this is the same receiver that ranked 16th in YPRR (2.20) and 19th in FD/RR (0.104) in 2023 (per Fantasy Points Data). That talent didn't suddenly disappear. It was depressed by a quarterback last year that ranked 21st in CPOE and 25th in clean pocket passer rating. Last year, he was the WR34 in fantasy points per game and the WR21 in expected fantasy points per game. With Jayden Daniels under center, McLaurin could return to the WR2 ranks in 2024.

Terry McLaurin caught six of his eight targets for 56 yards in a 38-10 loss to the Cowboys in Week 18.

Fantasy Impact

McLaurin wraps up his fifth NFL season with 79 catches for 1,002 yards and four touchdowns. The receiving yards total was his lowest since his rookie year back in 2019. McLaurin should bounce back in 2024 as the Commanders are expected to improve their quarterback situation this offseason.
