Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 20 Oct, 06:32 · Archive

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin suffered a left knee injury in the first quarter of Monday night's game against the San Francisco 49ers that the team fears is serious. He was taken off the field on a cart and immediately ruled out for the game. His knee appeared to buckle as he tried to get free from cornerback Deommodore Lenoir.

Coach Dan Quinn expressed concern after the Commanders' 23-17 loss to the 49ers, saying 'The concern now is that it could be significant' and that scans would be conducted on Tuesday to provide an update. He described the injury as 'definitely something that there's fear' about.

The 31-year-old has been relatively durable since entering the league in 2019, missing more than two games in a season only once. He missed seven games last season with a quadriceps injury and has appeared in most games this season, with 15 catches for 230 yards and one touchdown, aside from missing one game with a hamstring injury in Week 4. McLaurin is a two-time Pro Bowler with 513 career catches for 7,191 yards and 42 touchdowns. The Commanders also lost defensive lineman Javon Kinlaw to a knee injury in the first half.
