This ESPN expert NFL analyst comes to a 'strong' prediction regarding the situation with Commanders star Terry McLaurin.

On Monday, ESPN analyst Marcus Spears did not hold back when discussing the Washington Commanders' contract dispute with wide receiver Terry McLaurin. He thinks the situation is "stupid" and warns that the team's Super Bowl hopes could be jeopardized.

The Washington Commanders announced Saturday they activated wide receiver Terry McLaurin from the active/physically unable to perform list.

With the start of the regular season just around the corner, one insider weighed in on the possibility of Commanders wideout Terry McLaurin getting traded.

Washington Commanders star wide receiver Terry McLaurin has been seeking a new contract this offseason, and did not initially report to training camp before eventually joining his teammates as a "hold in.

Since McLaurin has requested the trade, not much ground has been made up between the two parties. ESPN's Peter Schrager said on Aug. 13 that the situation is "fascinating" because "nothing has changed and they're still a bit apart." McLaurin was spotted talking to Adam Peters on August 12 at practice.

This situation has become volatile with both Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys firing shots at each other, which has resulted in Parsons demanding a trade and saying he no longer wants to be a Cowboy. Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones has brushed that off as a negotiation tactic. This situation has gotten ugly and could get uglier.

As he remains in search of an extension with the Commanders, one insider dove into the unlikeliness of Terry McLaurin getting the sizable offer he desires.
