McLaurin remains Washington’s top target with a reliable floor; ceiling rises in favorable matchups.

McLaurin, Washington’s top target, didn’t deliver in this matchup, highlighting a challenging game script rather than a lack of skill. Expect him to rebound as Washington stabilizes game plans and protection, keeping him a buy-low candidate given his talent and high target ceiling.

McLaurin remains a vertical threat, with Washington's passing game leaning on efficient routes and contested catches. If Green Bay loses edge discipline, McLaurin’s big-play ability could pay off in several targets and deep shots as Washington tests the Packers’ corners.

McLaurin was limited to five catches for 48 yards as Green Bay’s secondary and pass rush stifled Washington’s aerial game. The unit’s resilience on McLaurin and the overall secondary suggests Washington may struggle against tougher defenses unless they scheme him open with better protection and play-action.

McLaurin profiles as the primary target in WAS’ passing attack; GB’s secondary has cracks, potentially elevating McLaurin’s target share in a Week 2 tilt. A strong receiving floor makes him a stable fantasy anchor in a testy game environment.
