Terry McLaurin discusses costly penalty in Commanders' loss to Eagles
Summary

The Commanders had a promising 12-play, 67-yard drive before halftime but struggled to maintain consistent offense throughout the game. McLaurin highlighted the importance of sustaining drives and addressed a critical 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty against teammate Stefon Diggs, which he believes affected their chances.
