This should serve as a reminder not to mess with Terry McLaurin.
During the first half of Washington’s game against the Cowboys, McLaurin had a heated exchange with Dallas cornerback Trevon Diggs.

That’s a 52-yard touchdown grab for the former Ohio State star to give Washington a commanding 16-3 lead over the Cowboys.
Despite quarterback issues in Washington, McLaurin is having a solid second season in the NFL. He entered this game with 487 yards on 36 catches through six contests. Last season as a rookie, McLaurin caught 58 passes for 919 yards and seven scores.
A victory for Washington would mean McLaurin’s squad would be tied for second place in the NFC East with the Cowboys. The Philadelphia Eagles would hold on to the division lead thanks to their tie vs. Cincinnati earlier in the season.
