Coach Ron Rivera said Thursday that Heinicke and Ryan Fitzpatrick are competing for the starting quarterback job, with Kyle Allen (ankle) potentially joining the mix later on, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
He may be a significant underdog, but Heinicke will at least be given the chance to outplay Fitzpatrick this summer. The 28-year-old QB signed a two-year contract with $1.5 million guaranteed this offseason, after throwing for 306 yards in Washington's 31-23 playoff loss to Tampa Bay.
