One day after Taylor Heinicke was questioned about a potential sponsorship with Heineken, he finally received the elusive deal with a famous beverage.
It’s not Heineken. Instead, Heinicke revealed he had reached a deal with Bud Light via his Instagram.

Heinicke revealed a box that said “Bud Lighticke.”
He offered the following comments with the picture:
With a name like Heinicke, there’s only one beer that it makes sense to partner with… 👀🤭 I’m joining @budlight and its #ForTheFans campaign (Sorry Heineken 🤣😂)
Bud Light officially confirmed the partnership.
SIGNED. Taylor Heinicke is officially team Bud Light. He is Taylor #BudLighticke from now on. pic.twitter.com/lHN2xYyx2k

This is fantastic. Heinicke is taking advantage of the recent success he’s had as Washington’s quarterback. Heinicke has passed for over 300 yards each time in two starts for Washington and almost led the WFT to an upset win over the Buccaneers in the playoffs in January.
Heinicke was outstanding in Week 2, leading Washington to a last-second win over the Giants.
Now, Heinicke must get ready for a stiff test in Week 3 as Washington travels to Buffalo. If he continues performing at his current level, Heineken may regret not closing the deal with Heinicke.
