The Washington Commanders and top wide receiver Terry McLaurin have agreed to a three-year contract extension worth $96 million, according to a person with knowledge of the deal. McLaurin initially did not report to training camp and then landed on the physically unable to perform list once he reported. McLaurin turns 30 in September and was going into the final year of his contract. The 2019 third-round pick out of Ohio State has eclipsed 1,000 yards receiving five seasons in a row and fell just 81 short as a rookie when he missed time because of injury.
Trey Hendrickson and the Cincinnati Bengals have agreed on a new one-year contract, ending his hold-in. Hendrickson will receive a $14 million raise, bringing his salary to $30 million for the season, three people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Monday. The people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the team hasn’t announced the contract. He becomes an unrestricted free agent after the season. Hendrickson missed the first seven days of training camp, incurring $350,000 in fines. Last season, he led the league with 17 1/2 sacks. The Bengals hope to improve their defense under new coordinator Al Golden. With Hendrickson signed, Dallas pass rusher Micah Parsons remains in a contract dispute.
