Taylor Heinicke's diving TD pulls Washington closer to Buccaneers

LANDOVER, Md. -- Washington Football Team quarterback Taylor Heinicke was corralled and in trouble. And then he did what he's done most of the night: He made a play.

Facing a third-and-5 from the Tampa Bay 8-yard line late in the third quarter, Heinicke dropped back to pass against a four-man rush. The pressure pinched him to the middle and he ducked forward as a defender reached for him.

Then Heinicke took off through the left side and down the sideline. He was going to get the first down, but Heinicke wanted more.
