WATCH: New York Giants At Washington Football Team, Week 2, Key Facts, Stats

Taylor Heinicke started a playoff game last season, but this will be his first regular-season start for the Washington Football Team.

The Washington Football Team will start quarterback Taylor Heinicke in Week 2 after veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick sustained a hip injury in the season opener. This will be Heinicke’s first regular-season start for Washington and second overall in the NFL (one game for Carolina in 2018).

Heinicke did start Washington’s wild-card playoff game last season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has registered 137 or fewer passing yards in eight of his nine previous regular-season appearances, but Washington is favored in this one against the New York Giants. Go to Tipico Sportsbook for the most updated odds.
