3 years agoWashington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke has QB2 appeal in a matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 13. Heinicke is fresh off completing 27-of-35 passes against the Seahawks in a game where the Football Team dominated possession. It is unlikely that Heinicke will be able to see that type of passing volume once again, as Antonio Gibson could be leaned on quite a bit to take advantage of the weak run defense. The pass defense has been solid this season, as the Raiders have allowed just 6.6 yards per attempt, which is good for the fourth-fewest in the league. The Raiders have allowed 20 passing touchdowns up to this point, however, Heinicke has thrown for more than two passing touchdowns on just two occasions this season. Any shortage of passing volume will likely mean a floor performance from the 28-year-old, but he can still be counted on as a QB2 in Super-Flex or two-QB leagues.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
