The Washington Commanders will visit the New York Giants in Week 15. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Terry McLaurin.
Is Terry McLaurin Playing in Week 15?
McLaurin is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Commanders’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit McLaurin in Week 15?
McLaurin had the early 28-yard grab on Sunday against the Vikes, but he was hardly heard from after that (13 more yards) because Washington as a team was hardly heard from after that.
For the game, they had the ball for barely 25 minutes and struggled to sustain much of anything. McLaurin was very clearly part of the script (46.2% first-half target share), and with Jayden Daniels on the iffy side of questionable right now, it’s worth noting that Marcus Mariota got his WR1 14 targets in Week 13 against a tough Broncos defense.
The opponent is much softer in this spot, and the target competition is less with Zach Ertz (ACL) out for the season (he and McLaurin saw a 60% target share in that Denver game). I think you could make a reasonably sound case to rank him as high as WR7 this week, and I’ve got him as WR11.
It hasn’t been a great season if you invested in McLaurin this summer, but one big week at the perfect time can help offset some of that, and he does face the Cowboys during the fantasy Super Bowl in Week 17.
