Commanders receiver Terry McLaurin joked that he ‘ran a lot of cardio’ on Sunday after finishing his team’s loss to the Dolphins with zero catches.

McLaurin, who was a Pro Bowler last year, was targeted three times as the Dolphins beat Washington 45-15.

And he was understandably frustrated by his performance after the game. 

‘I ran a lot of cardio,’ he said, via NBC 4 Washington ‘It happens, it comes with it when it’s tough, but yeah it’s frustrating. But imma keep coming in and practicing and playing hard. 

‘As long as I turn on the film and I’m making extra blocks down the field when I’m trying to clear it out for guys,’ he continued. Imma continue to run my routes hard, that’s what imma do. At the end of the day, I’m not gon quit but yeah it’s frustrating.

It was just the second time in 76 regular season games that McLaurin had failed to register a catch.

The 28-year-old has been one of the league’s better receivers ever since he was drafted in 2019, and has topped 1,000 yards in each of the last three seasons.

He’s averaged 4.7 catches per contest since his rookie year.

With the loss, the Commanders dropped to 4-9 on the year while Miami improved to 9-3.

McLaurin will look to get back on track in Week 15 vs. the Rams after Washington’s bye.
