NFL RUMORS: Washington Extends QB Heinicke

With the QB carousel spinning fairly quickly this offseason, it appears one potential player who could have drawn interest has been locked up for the foreseeable future.

According to Ian Rapoport, Washington has agreed to terms on a 2-year extension for quarterback Taylor Heinicke, who stepped up in a big way for them during their postseason match-up against Tampa Bay in the Wild Card round.

Heinicke played well in that game, completing 26-of-44 for 306-yards along with a touchdown and one interception.

He finished 10-of-18 for 130-yards with an interception in the first half as the Buccaneers built an 18-7 lead, but he was 16-of-26 for 176-yards and a touchdown in the second half and kept them in the game.
