Taylor Heinicke tosses three touchdown passes in win over Panthers

Washington Taylor Heinicke completed 16 of his 22 pass attempts for 206 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions in Sunday's win over the Panthers. He also rushed six times for 29 yards.

Fantasy Impact

Heinicke's three touchdown passes are his most since Week 4 when he tossed three touchdowns against the Falcons in Atlanta. The veteran quarterback has had an up-and-down season but is playing better over the last two weeks after throwing six interceptions in four games heading into the team's Week 9 bye week. Heinicke and Washington are scheduled to face the Seahawks at home next week.
