McLaurin caught five of six targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-33 win over the Eagles.
Analysis
The veteran wideout hit paydirt on a beautiful 32-yard toss from Jayden Daniels in the second quarter that dropped in right over McLaurin's shoulder, but the Philly secondary focused their efforts on shutting him down the rest of the day. That strategy backfired when it left Olamide Zaccheaus and Jamison Crowder open for four more Daniels TDs. McLaurin still crossed the 70-catch and 1,000-yard milestones for the fifth straight season with his performance, and his 12 touchdowns in 15 games shatters his previous career high of seven. McLaurin will take aim at his personal best of 1,191 yards -- he's 162 yards shy -- in Week 17 against the Falcons.
McLaurin finished with seven receptions (on 10 targets) for 73 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.
Analysis
McLaurin teamed up with quarterback Jayden Daniels to score both of Washington's touchdowns on the day. It was Scary Terry's second consecutive game with multiple trips to the end zone, and his fourth overall this season (11 total touchdowns). The 28-year-old is just 31 yards shy of recording his fifth 1,000-yard campaign in his sixth season with the Commanders. McLaurin should accomplish the feat with ease in a pivotal matchup against the Eagles next Sunday.
McLaurin caught all eight of his targets for 73 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 42-19 win over the Titans.
Analysis
McLaurin extended Washington's advantage to 21-0 with a 16-yard touchdown catch in the final minute of the first quarter, then caught a three-yard touchdown in the second quarter. After getting off to slow starts in recent weeks, McLaurin piled up six catches for 52 yards and two touchdowns in the first half of this lopsided win. He wasn't heavily involved in the second half as the Commanders rode their running game while nursing a hefty lead. McLaurin has three multi-touchdown games and nine receiving scores overall heading into Washington's Week 14 bye.
McLaurin brought in five of six targets for 102 yards and a touchdown in the Commanders' 34-26 loss to the Cowboys on Sunday.
Analysis
McLaurin finished with a team-high yardage total thanks to a miracle 86-yard touchdown reception with 21 seconds remaining on a play where the Cowboys were playing a heavy prevent defense. Prior to that unlikely catch, however, McLaurin had netted just 16 yards on four receptions and appeared headed to his third sub-20-yard receiving tally over the last four games. Despite the significant volatility in his production, McLaurin remains an every-week fantasy starter thanks to his upside as the Commanders prepare to tangle with the Titans in a Week 13 home battle.
McLaurin secured one of two targets for 10 yards in the Commanders' 26-18 loss to the Eagles on Thursday night.
Analysis
McLaurin was one of six Commanders players to record only one catch on a night where Jayden Daniels spread the ball around to nine different targets. The veteran wideout's reception and yardage totals were both season lows, but it was far from McLaurin's only low-output game. The 2019 third-round pick has recorded 22 or fewer yards on four different occasions this season, which he's offset with a quartet of 100-yard tallies. Therefore, McLaurin remains an appealing but somewhat volatile fantasy asset heading into a Week 12 home matchup against the Cowboys on Sunday, Nov. 24.
McLaurin recorded five receptions on six targets for 113 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis
McLaurin delivered several splash plays in Sunday's loss, including a 54-yard reception on the first play from scrimmage of the second half and a 28-yard catch late in the third quarter. That helped him to his fourth 100-yard game of the campaign, and he's now hit the century mark or found the end zone in seven of his last eight contests. That makes McLaurin one of the most reliable producers at the position heading into a divisional showdown against the Eagles in Week 11.
McLaurin recorded two catches on three targets for 19 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Giants.
Analysis
Jayden Daniels only attempted 22 passes, lowering the volume across Washington's skill-position players. Nevertheless, it was surprising that Noah Brown doubled McLaurin in targets and four total pass catchers outpaced him in yardage. Despite the odd box score, it's hard to complain about the end result, as both of McLaurin's receptions went for touchdowns -- his second multi-score game of the season. He's now tallied 95 or more receiving yards or scored a touchdown in seven straight games, giving him remarkably consistent production.
McLaurin recorded five receptions on eight targets for 125 yards in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears.
Analysis
McLaurin caught long passes of 61 and 25 yards to top 100 yards for the third time this season and for the first time since Week 5. He was outtargeted by Zach Ertz but still holds the most valuable fantasy role in the offense. After a relatively inconsistent start to the season, McLaurin now has at least 95 receiving yards and five receptions in three of his last four games heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Giants.
McLaurin recorded six receptions on six targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.
Analysis
McLaurin had an impressive performance given the context of the game, as Jayden Daniels (ribs) exited after Washington's first possession and the passing volume was limited due to the blowout nature of the win. Despite both of those things working against him, McLaurin gained at least 15 yards on all six of his catches. His outlook could change if Daniels is set to miss a matchup in Week 8 against the Bears, but McLaurin has at least 98 receiving yards in three of his last five matchups.
