Terry McLaurin ranks as NFL’s No. 3 overall receiver in this key stat

Averaging more than 20-yards per catch on Sunday against the Browns, McLaurin once again showed how dangerous he is in the passing game.

A new wave of receivers is taking over the NFL, and Washington’s Terry McLaurin is helping to lead the charge.

McLaurin had yet another great day on Sunday in Washington’s 34-20 loss to the Cleveland Browns, and his team did a good job of getting him the ball early and often. McLaurin finished the day with four catches for 83 yards, but what was most impressive that he averaged 20.8 yards per catch. More impressive than that? The second-year WR averaged just over 10-yards per target, meaning he picked up over half of his yards after the catch.

Once again, McLaurin is showing the incredible talent he has with the ball in his hands, and he ranks as the third-best receiver in the NFL when it comes to plays that pick up more than 10 yards, trailing only DeAndre Hopkins and Calvin Ridley.

Now imagine what he could do if the quarterback situation were to improve in Washington? Look out, because that could get dangerous in a hurry.
