Terry McLaurin has proven 2 weeks in a row that he can deliver when it counts for the Washington Commanders.
Washington walked away on top of the Indianapolis Colts, 17-16 after McLaurin’s crazy effort to place the Commanders at the 1-yard line with under 30 seconds remaining. Quarterback Taylor Heinicke finished the job with a QB sneak a few moments later.
Just look at McLaurin go and snatch this thing.

McLaurin also put the Commanders in excellent position to beat the Green Bay Packers last week.
The Commanders are now 4-4 on the season and well within the hunt for the Playoffs come the end of the year. Heinicke has given the Commanders offense a light it did not have under Carson Wentz, and the players are making use of the spark.
McLaurin racked up 6 receptions for 113 yards on the evening.
