Terry McLaurin is still continuing his scorching play in the NFL.
The former Ohio State receiver had already posted 19 catches for 308 yards and three touchdowns through his first four games, but he had another impressive outing Sunday.
Against the Dolphins, McLaurin recorded four catches for 100 yards and two touchdowns with the Washington Redskins. It was his second 100-yard game and first multi-touchdown game of his early NFL career. His touchdowns were also the majority of Washington’s offense in a 17-16 win.

One play that really highlighted McLaurin’s big day was his first touchdown of the game. He broke free from the defense after running an incredible route that included a beautiful head fake.
It fooled his defender and gave him plenty of separation for the pass:
Hell of a route by Terry McLaurin. Love the head fake before he breaks back outside. Keenum finds him for the TD #Redskins pic.twitter.com/6HcNVrHOli
