Washington Football Team QB Taylor Heinicke has belief from head coach Ron Rivera that he can handle the starting duties. Heinicke has shown good mobility and accuracy when he is forced out, but the team wants to hone him in a bit. ‘He plays a little bit like his hair is on fire,’ Rivera said. ‘He plays a little bit like a gunslinger. But I think, and I hopefully believe that he’s matured a little bit.’ I think just understanding the game even more so. He’s learned to be patient, take what’s given to him, and I think he has a really good feel for when he takes his shots, too.’
