Washington Football Team QB Ryan Fitzpatrick leaves game with hip injury

LANDOVER, Md. -- Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick injured his right hip and was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Taylor Heinicke, a fan favorite after a strong showing in a playoff loss to Tampa Bay, replaced Fitzpatrick. He led a field goal drive at the end of the first half, aided by a 15-yard roughing the passer penalty.

Midway through the second quarter, Fitzpatrick dropped back to pass but was leveled by linebacker Uchenna Nwosu, who beat left tackle Charles Leno Jr.
