In an offseason that has seen record-breaking contracts for wide receivers, three of the NFL's top young players at the position are looking for new deals of their own.

Sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter that 49ers star Deebo Samuel, Titans wideout A.J. Brown and Commanders receiver Terry McLaurin are seeking new contracts and are not expected to participate in any on-field work during their respective teams' offseason programs.

The Titans and Commanders begin their offseason programs Monday, while the Niners start Tuesday. Brown does not intent to report Monday, a source told ESPN's Turron Davenport, but McLaurin still plans to report on time for the start of Washington's program, a source told Schefter.

Not too worried, this is "normal" in negotiations. Would love to see what we offered him and what he requested.

Hope the team gets it done this offseason and we dont have to tag.

This is a shit headline on ESPN's part.

"Deebo Samuel, A.J. Brown, Terry McLaurin to skip on-field work during offseason programs amid push for new contracts, sources say"

It reads like they want people to think all 3 are holding out for new deals. Yet it clearly says in the article McLaurin is planning to attend.

Be better ESPN.

Also for the love of fucking god, pay McLaurin. Get it done already. This organization really sets records for shitting on its' talented players and then letting them walk for peanuts afterwards.

They have plenty of time to offer Terry an extension, if they haven't done so already. I don't think either side is under any pressure to get something done ASAP. A lot of times these extensions happen over the summer. I'll start to get concerned if nothing happens by August.

I'm so tired of hearing about Terry's contract, I swear the DC Media just loves to start drama

Does McLaurin even want to be here? Sounds like people are just assuming that. If he does then they'll get something done. But what if he wants to leave? Or is asking for Adams type of cash? Just something to keep in mind.

I think ESPN is saying all three of those receivers plan to skip on field portion of the offseason program. But, Terry plans to report on time to the offseason program.

So he'll sit in meetings and be around but he won't run around on the field and risk blowing out a knee like Reuben Foster.

I’m not as negative on the social media influencer as you guys are. This is designed to reach out to younger generation on their platforms. It does nothing for me personally but I don’t see how this hurts. She has 6.8 million tik tok followers and 2.2 million subscribers on YouTube. She is from Maryland and a fan of the team. You want to grow a younger and female audience this is not a bad attempt.

Agreed.

Didn't realize we had so many boomers on board here. You either roll with the times or the times roll over you. If you don't get what this is all about, don't worry you're probably not in the target demographic.

The team is asking about the hashtag , HTTC or TAKECOMMAND.

Lol HTTC is so forced.

#HTTC is straight forward and to the point. #TakeCommand is corny AF.

The only time I'll use "take command" is when I'm getting pissed off at our team in a GameDay thread.

Definitely super lame and corny.

Honestly the whole thing is corny but I get why they are doing it. Trying to draw more and more fans in.

Going to be interesting to see how many show up on opening day
