The reeling Washington Commanders will be without star wide receiver Terry McLaurin for the season after he tore his left patellar tendon.

What the coverage shows

Both outlets focus on the same core update: Terry McLaurin is out for the season. Fox News gives the most specific framing, adding that it is a left patellar tendon tear and attributing the news to the coach, while Newsweek uses the more dramatic label “brutal” injury and does not specify the tendon in its extract.
