Some big news hit the NFL timeline last week as Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin reportedly requested a trade. While it is believed that McLaurin won't actually be moved ahead of the season, it's still not a comforting feeling to know a team's top wide receiver might not want to be with the organization.

Terry McLaurin has asked out. The Washington Commanders' star receiver is entering the final season of a three-year, $68 million contract, and he wants an extension that will pay him like the Steelers are paying DK Metcalf (four years, $132 million).

As contract talks between Terry McLaurin and the Washington Commanders continue, one insider noted a key factor that has led to the two sides being far apart.
