After speculation that he could miss the Commanders season opener against the Cardinals and potentially more with a turf toe injury, Terry McLaurin appears to have a better chance of starting than sitting on Sunday. This is clearly good news, but McLaurin and his managers aren’t out of the woods yet; with two more injury reports between now and Sunday, fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status before penciling him into lineups. McLaurin would likely be a mid-low WR2 this week in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals, but if he wouldn’t play, Sam Howell’s projection would likely take a hit while Jahan Dotson would receive a boost.
