Exploring Terry McLaurin's availability status for tonight's Wild Card game
Terry McLaurin will start Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The veteran pass catcher enters the Commanders' playoff opener without an injury designation. Hence, he'll be on the Gridiron, barring any unforeseen scenarios.
McLaurin hasn't missed a game since the 2020 season and has been consistent with an ever-revolving Washington carousel of wide receivers. It's only right that he stars in their first postseason game in years.
However, while McLaurin is good to go, the same can't be said about Colson Yankoff. The tight end is dealing with a hamstring injury and remains on the injured reserve ahead of the start of the postseason. Yankoff will need to wait a little longer to return to action, and he'll miss the Buccaneers game on Sunday night.
How did Terry McLaurin perform in the regular season?
McLaurin had an impressive 2024 regular season and was key in the Commanders' qualification for the postseason. McLaurin served as a safety blanket for rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, who thrived in the role for the entirety of the year.
McLaurin amassed a thoroughly impressive stat line of 82 catches, 1,096 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.
The Commanders will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their playoff opener. The game will feature some of the best players the NFC has to offer, including McLaurin, Mike Evans, Jayden Daniels, Baker Mayfield, and more. It will occur at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.
