Let the Heinicke fever continue!

@RapSheet
The Washington Football Team has agreed to terms on a 2-year extension for QB Taylor Heinicke, sources say, worth $8.75M. There are also incentives depending on how many games he starts. Real security for their resilient QB who started and impressed in the playoff game.

Your 2021 starter folks. If you don’t like it, get over it! 😉

Rationale: we aren’t going to bet the farm on a top tier QB. We will settle for signing/trading for a mid tier vet QB who will be in competition for the starting job. Because of Heinicke’s familiarity with the system, he is ultimately going to win the starting QB competition.

Hope he hits the gym hard this offseason. Durability is definitely the major concern with him.

that is my biggest concern with him . . . i think he can play, as long as he can stay on the field and be playing close to 100%, not playing injured all the time or missing games.

I guess these shirts (https://www.fanatics.com/nfl/washington-football-team/taylor-heinicke-washington-football-team-the-legend-of-taylor-heinicke-t-shirt-burgundy/o-3527+t-92375092+p-4834640806+z-8-3657446736?_ref=p-TLP:m-GRID:i-r0c2:po-2) will really start flying off the shelves now

Kind of cringe that we're selling a shirt based on a QB that lost a playoff game

I love the move. I hope he gets a shot (barring Watson/Wilson surprise) I don't think any other qb out there deserves the automatic starting nod anymore than he does.

I wonder what they do with Allen?

Well said President.

Seriously, solid move, would be stupid not to give him a shot, and at the very least keep him as a good back up.
Plus, when you're trying to build a culture, you keep guys that earned it. Especially when it doesn't hurt you cap wise.

I don't see why they wouldn't re-sign Allen too.

I'd put Allen as the favorite to start if it comes down to him and Heinicke.

Love that shirt. Heinicke reminds me of Gus Frerotte in the sense of being the overriding fan favorite.

That said, I think it's unfair to label him as a qb who lost a playoff game. The Bucs defense was legit, and Heinicke moved the team effectively. It was definitely the lack of pressure that lost the game. Add in the fact that he was only on the team 4 weeks, and I think the t-shirt is a right fair play. My birthday is in June if anyone feels the same ;)

Well it's not labeling, we lost the game. Just seems a little odd to celebrate that is all.
