Taylor Heinicke Throws For 122 Yards
3 years agoWashington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke took over in the Week 1 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers after Ryan Fitzpatrick was ruled out with an injury. Heinicke completed 11-of-15 passes for 122 yards and one touchdown and added 17 rushing yards on three rushing attempts. If Fitzpatrick misses significant time, Heinicke could be worth a look in deeper or two-QB leagues because of his rushing ability. He would be best suited as a QB2 and could have some streaming appeal against weak opposing defenses. However, he doesn't seem like an attractive option if he starts in Week 2 against the New York Giants.
