Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin, who held out of the first several days of training camp as part of his effort to secure a lucrative extension, has reported to camp, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. However, there is no new contract in place, and the team has put McLaurin on the active/PUP list with an ankle injury.

In addressing the situation, head coach Dan Quinn said McLaurin will work off to the side with trainers to get his ankle better (via ESPN’s John Keim). It is still unclear whether McLaurin will practice with the club once he has fully recovered.

While Keim notes McLaurin was dealing with an injury to the same ankle at the end of last season, multiple writers appear skeptical about the ailment. Schefter suggests McLaurin is simply engaging in a hold-in rather than a holdout, and JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington said, “I bet [the ankle] would get better with an 8 figure check.”

More to come.
