Blough Sets 10-Target Plan To Center Commanders’ Offense On Terry McLaurin

Jayden Daniels leads offseason workouts to rebuild timing following a 5-12 season.

Overview

  • Terry McLaurin said new offensive coordinator David Blough told him in February the offense would aim for about 10 targets per game for him, and he welcomed the plan.
  • McLaurin described Blough as a coach who has followed through in spring workouts, saying the approach would move him around to create matchups and free teammates.
  • Quarterback Jayden Daniels organized player-led sessions at UCLA and USC, which McLaurin said helped the roster reconnect and get work in before formal practices.
  • Last season stalled when Daniels played only seven games due to injury, and McLaurin’s output fell to 38 catches for 582 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games.
  • With Daniels healthy and McLaurin set for a larger share, Washington is betting better chemistry and a clearer pecking order can revive an offense that peaked when McLaurin posted 82 catches for 1,096 yards and 13 touchdowns two years ago.
