The victory over the New York Giants this Thursday (16), in the opening of week 2 of the NFL, made Washington Football Team quarterback, Taylor Heinicke, believe that he must continue to command the attack of the franchise in the capital of the United States.
Heinicke, who started the season on Ryan Fitzpatrick’s reserve, became the Football Team starter after veteran “Fitzmagic” suffered a hip injury in the second quarter of the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, which will require up to eight weeks of recovery. .
Against the Giants, Heinicke played only his second regular-season start and went for 336 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. After the game, QB responded to NFL Network commentator Michael Irvin if he believed he had earned the right to remain in charge of the Football Team’s offensive unit.
– Yes, and I’m confident I can do it. So if those guys in the locker room and the franchise believe me, that’s all that matters.
