Commanders’ Terry McLaurin Carted Off With Knee Injury in 23‑17 Loss to 49ers | JQJO

Washington Commanders star wide receiver Terry McLaurin was carted off in an air cast after a significant knee injury early in Monday night’s 23‑17 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. McLaurin fell near the sideline during a route in the first quarter; replay showed his left knee buckling as he planted to the outside. He remained on the field in pain before a cart arrived, and he hopped onto the vehicle with his entire left leg in a full air cast. The Commanders ruled him out with a knee injury, and head coach Dan Quinn said the injury could be significant. McLaurin had one 27‑yard catch before going down. He entered the game with 203 receiving yards and a touchdown in four games this season. The injury comes as Washington sits 1‑4‑1, last in the NFC East, and could complicate quarterback Jayden Daniels’ plans as the team heads toward the midway point of the season.
