Jayden Daniels had a lot to say about a disgruntled teammate during an interview with The Athletic’s Dianna Russini on the latest episode of “Scoop City.”
Daniels raised eyebrows when he said during Monday’s preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals that he knew unsettled wide receiver Terry McLaurin would “be coming through the door soon.”
McLaurin, who has been the subject of trade rumors, is unhappy with his current deal and would like to have another one to step on the field in 2025.
The Washington Commanders have worked diligently to put the necessary pieces in place for Daniels to succeed, but one stone remains unturned.
