Training camps start next week for many NFL teams, and one of the most interesting storylines centers around Washington Commanders star Terry McLaurin.The veteran wide receiver is entering the final season of a three-year deal he signed in 2022, but he wants a new contract now. McLaurin addressed the contract dispute when speaking to reporters earlier this week, and he didn’t sound pleased. “Yeah, I’ve been pretty frustrated, I’m not going to lie,” McLaurin said. “Everything that has transpired up to this point has been disappointing and frustrating. I want to continue my career here. I’ve created my life here. My wife and I have bought our first home here, so this has been somewhere where I’ve always wanted to be.”“Just to see how things have played out has been disappointing. I obviously understand everything is a business, but at the same time, I want to put myself in a position where I’m valued and I feel appreciated.”🔊 Next Pats: Why Terry McLaurin would make the PERFECT Patriot | Listen & Subscribe | Watch on YouTubeSo, how does the McLaurin situation ultimately play out? The New England Patriots still need a No. 1 wide receiver. Should they call the Commanders and ask about McLaurin? Would the Commanders actually consider a trade at some point?NBC4 Sports Washington’s J.P. Finlay joined Phil Perry on NBC Sports Boston’s Next Pats Podcast to give his take on McLaurin’s future.“To me, if Terry McLaurin became available, a lot of NFL teams would be interested. I don’t think he’s becoming available, honestly,” Finlay said. “I think they get this done. I think there’s still plenty of time. (Commanders tight end) Zach Ertz said the other day, I think on Kay Adams’ (show), that it’s the middle of July and we don’t play until early September.“I think there are a few different factors. One, Terry McLaurin means so much to this organization and the Washington fan base that I don’t think ownership — which has really regained the trust of fans down here after 25 years of misery — I just don’t see them not getting to the finish line.“I think (Commanders GM Adam Peters) wants to run his ship right, and if you look at how San Francisco did their negotiations, a lot of time they’re contentious right up until the end, and it’s amazing how an eight-figure check can change people’s feelings, right?”More Patriots coverageNew England PatriotsJul 16Should Patriots call Commanders about Terry McLaurin amid contract dispute?The Commanders are Super Bowl contenders if franchise quarterback Jayden Daniels is healthy. They had a really good offense last season, and that unit could be even better in 2025 after the offseason additions of star wideout Deebo Samuel and veteran left tackle Laremy Tunsil.Trading McLaurin would significantly weaken Washington’s offense at a time when the franchise is in win-now mode. So from an on-field perspective, it doesn’t make any sense for them to move him. The Commanders don’t have any other wide receiver who can replicate the total package of skills he brings to the field each game.“If you look at the Commanders’ offense, which was really good, really explosive last year, you add Deebo Samuel, you add Laremy Tunsil — clearly they’re in it to compete right now,” Finlay said. “If you remove Terry McLaurin from that offense — Deebo is a unique puzzle piece. He’s an excellent player, but he’s not a route runner, you know what I mean? He’s not like a pure receiver.“You take Terry off that offense and your top pure receiver becomes Noah Brown, and then you’re talking about Luke McCaffrey, a guy they drafted last year and like, but he didn’t have much production as a rookie. They drafted another kid this year in the fourth round, Jaylin Lane, and there’s real excitement about him, but he projects as a punt returner, slot receiver guy.“If you take Terry off this offense, I do think Kliff Kingsbury and Jayden Daniels can manufacture some offense, but you lose verticality in your offense, and I can’t imagine they want to do that.”Also in this episode: Phil shares his thoughts on the contract dispute between Terry McLaurin and the Commanders and what it could mean for the PatriotsPhil previews Patriots training camp by sharing his five breakout candidates, and five position battles to watchPhil opens up the mailbag to answer your questionsThis story uses functionality that may not work in our app. Click here to open the story in your web browser.

Utility companies are closely watching the demand the searing temperatures are putting on the power grid. Technology like artificial intelligence has also put more demand on the system. The Eversource power distribution operations center in Dorchester is filled with real-time information where crews monitor the power grid to assure it runs as designed. “The blue line is the forecasted energy use, and the lighter line is the actual,” said Doug Foley, the president of electric operations for Massachusetts for Eversource, while showing NBC10 Boston real-time energy consumption data. Amid scorching heat on Wednesday, Eversource called on its partners who voluntarily agreed to reduce their consumption during high-use days. “That was about 80-100 megawatts that our customers reduced in order to match generation,” Foley said.The balancing act has gotten trickier with AI tools. “A ChatGPT AI query actually uses 10 times the amount of energy as a basic search through Google or Yahoo,” said Mathew Carrara, president of Doble Engineering. The Boston-area company works with utilities like Eversource to help determine if their system needs tweaking to keep up with demand. “We basically monitor the equipment that is in play and say, ‘Hey, you are operating at a safe level. You should be okay with a certain amount of demand depending on what that demand could be,’” Carrara said.Vincent Lopopolo, of Holden, says he uses power and AI: “I wouldn’t have graduated college without AI. I had no idea it was in big demand. I thought it was just like using a google search.” Carrara says AI relies on supercomputing to be able to run a query in a matter of seconds. “Every time someone uses an AI format, the drain on the power grid is instant and because we don’t know when someone is going to do a ChatGPT search, the drain on the grid is unknown,” he said. “It can happen any time of the day, 24 hours, so AI and data centers as a whole are having a lasting impact on the power grid.”Carrera calls it one question that even AI may need a few years to figure out: “How do you generate this same type of intelligence but using less energy.” There are companies, Carrara said, trying to make the technology more efficient, but it is likely years away.

Fall River will increase firefighter staffing in the wake of an assisted-living facility blaze that’s one of the deadliest fires in recent Massachusetts history, the city’s mayor and union officials said Wednesday.The firefighter’s union has said inadequate staffing hindered the response to the blaze and contributed to the death toll, which stood at nine on Wednesday, with two people in critical condition. Mayor Paul Coogan had said there would be time for conversations about staffing levels as the immediate need to help people subsided. But on Wednesday, both sides joined for a news conference and announced that four more of the city’s fire trucks will be staffed with four firefighters, up to six from two. “This is a very important issue that’s been in the spotlight for the last few days,” Coogan said, calling it a “positive step” that will make city residents safer. Questions have also arisen about the facility’s safety and disaster preparedness after the state previously cited it for failing to report numerous health and safety incidents. Those questions remained under investigation Wednesday.Here’s what to know about the blaze, its victims, and how authorities and residents have reacted in the aftermath:What we know about the fireFirefighters responded to the Gabriel House in Fall River, about 50 miles south of Boston, at about 9:50 p.m. Sunday and were met with heavy smoke and flames at the front of the building.The fire trapped residents inside, including some who were hanging out windows screaming for help, authorities said Monday. At least 30 people were hurt.About 50 firefighters responded to the scene, including 30 who were off-duty. Police helped break down doors and carried about a dozen residents to safety. Five injured firefighters were released from the hospital Monday.The blaze’s origin and cause are under investigation, and the Bristol County district attorney’s office said the cause “does not appear to be suspicious.”What we know about the Gabriel HouseThe three-story Gabriel House is a 100-unit assisted-living facility that opened in 1999, according to the Massachusetts Executive Office of Aging and Independence. The facility’s website promotes studio apartments “for those seniors who cannot afford the high end of assisted living,” as well as group adult foster care within walking distance of shopping, restaurants and churches.Those who live alone in studio apartments, arranged around a central courtyard area, pay between $1,850 and $2,400 monthly, depending on their level of services, according to the website. The residence also offers a basic living plan that includes shared studio apartments but doesn’t specify a price.“If an emergency occurs, no matter the time, there will be someone ready to help,” the website states.Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey at a news conference described the facility’s residents as a vulnerable population with many in wheelchairs and having oxygen tanks.Those who died ranged in age from 61 to 86. Family members have already begun sharing their stories.On Wednesday, the district attorney’s office released the identity of the eighth of the nine people killed in the fire, 77-year-old Joseph Wilansky. The identity of the ninth person, a 70-year-old woman, is not being publicly released because family members have yet to be notified.Fire Chief Jeffrey Bacon said at Wednesday that two others remain hospitalized in critical condition. While the district attorney’s office said Massachusetts State Police have received preliminary information from the Gabriel House that two residents remain hospitalized in critical condition, they said they have not yet been able to confirm that information with the hospital. They said they can only confirm at this time that one 66-year-old female resident remains in critical condition.Records show that the facility was cited for failing to immediately report more than two dozen health and safety incidents. The facility was last inspected by the state on Oct. 31, 2023, according to a report from the state Executive Office of Elder Affairs. The report cited the facility for seven deficiencies, four of which were repeat problems. After the facility responded with a corrective action plan, it was re-certified through November 2025.Dennis Etzkorn, the facility’s owner, declined to comment Monday, but officials said he was cooperating with the investigation.Tension over fire preparedness and responseA firefighters union said inadequate staffing hindered the response to the blaze and contributed to the death toll. One fire captain said no breathing equipment was available when he arrived, so he searched door to door without an air tank until the smoke got to him.“We did the best we could with what we had, and what we had was not enough,” said Michael O’Reagan, president of the Fall River firefighters union.Coogan, the mayor, had said fire department staffing is based on the fire chief’s recommendations.“You couldn’t have had enough people here to save everybody that needed help last night,” Bacon said.But the mayor and union were conciliatory at Wednesday’s press conference, with both sides encouraged the progress in boosting staffing levels, while still aiming for adding four more firefighter positions, so all 10 of the city’s trucks can be staffed with four firefighters.“The language was spicy and it went back and forth, but it was only spicy in the same direction,” Coogan said of the discussions.International Association of Fire Fighters President Ed Kelly, whom Coogan referred to as “my new friend” also spoke, stressed that staffing issues are “not just a Fall River problem,” and said that decisionmakers across Massachusetts and the country should prioritize hiring more firefighters. “We don’t want to have the conversation after the tragedy,” Kelly said.Several residents praised firefighters and police for heroic rescue efforts but said staff members did little to help.Richard Moore, a former head of the Massachusetts Assisted Living Association and a former longtime state senator, called on the attorney general to investigate. He said he was troubled by what he heard about the circumstances leading up to the fire, including insufficient fire drills and an owner who was indicted in 2012 on medical assistance fraud and kickback charges that were dismissed three years later.Deadliest fire in Mass. in 40 yearsThe Fall River blaze is the deadliest fire in Massachusetts since 15 people were killed in 1984 in a rooming house fire in Beverly, according to the state Department of Fire Services. Eight people were killed in a 1982 apartment fire in Lowell, seven people were killed in a 1978 apartment fire in Lawrence, and six firefighters died in a 1999 warehouse fire in Worcester.Head cook Paul Ferreira said the people at Gabriel House had long struggled to find affordable housing.How to helpThere are several ways to donate to those impacted by the deadly fire at the Gabriel House that have been sanctioned by the city.Donations have already been pouring into the city’s Timao Center, which has served as a temporary shelter for the survivors.“It’s been amazing, my car is absolutely stuffed,” said Niki Fontaine, the city’s director of outreach services.The city has posted information on several ways to help, including donating money to the United Way of Greater Fall River and the Firefighter Wives Association. They said the greatest need is for clothes, shoes and other basic items; counseling; housing; funeral services; assistance for veterans and document replacement.Fontaine elaborated, saying, “What we still really need are sneakers, plus-size stuff, PJs, phone chargers, books or activities... sleepwear, socks, underwear, stuff like that.”Catholic Charities is collecting donations at 1600 Bay Street in Fall River. Donations can be dropped off Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.More on the Fall River fireFall River20 hours ago‘Very important part of our family': Loved ones mourn those killed in Fall River firePhilanthropyJul 15How to help the victims of the deadly Fall River assisted-living facility fireMassachusettsJul 15Questions remain about Fall River assisted living facility fire that killed 9
