Injury:
Taylor Heinicke says he got "a little banged up" vs the Chargers in Week 1 but it's nothing serious. Says it was a leg whip and he got bruised up. Was fine vs NY Giants obviously

Taylor Heinicke practiced with a padded sleeve over his lower right leg. Said it's nothing serious. Was bruised in the Chargers game, got "leg-whipped."

Pocket passer:
Taylor Heinicke said he stayed in the pocket much longer against the Giants because of New York's defensive front. Bigger bodies that tried to collapse the pocket, so Heinicke stayed patient and didn't need to bail to the outside. Heinicke only had six rushing yards.

Taylor Heinicke ordered a Jimi Hendrix T-shirt. Just bought a "Scary Terry" shirt too.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) September 21, 2021
He's big on graphic Ts.
(Between this and wings, I'm clearly bringing the hard-hitting news. You're welcome.)
Heineken endorsement:
Yes Heinicke is angling for a Heineken endorsement. Nothing yet. Says maybe has to start shooting for Bud Light. pic.twitter.com/enfR7dJwqw

Taylor Heinicke says his weekend include watching football and drinking Heineken.@michaelpRTD: How's that endorsement coming?
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 21, 2021
Heinicke: "I'm trying, man."
Heinicke said Heineken told his agent it shipped a 24-pack to his house but he never got it. Then the company said it couldn't ship to his house, and Heinicke noted there's a gas station about a mile away stocked with Heineken.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 21, 2021
McLaurin said Heinicke is calm, cool and collected. That helps out the offense, McLaurin said, and the game moves pretty slowly for the QB
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
McLaurin has noticed how the fans have gravitated towards Heinicke. It’s similar to how the team views him. He’s always ready for his moment and plays with everything he’s got. The fans respect it, and so do his teammates.

Buffalo Bills:
Terry on road game: "You don't know what to expect, it's your first road game against a playoff team."
— George Wallace (@GWallaceWTOP) September 21, 2021
Washington’s offense:
McLaurin said the next step for the offense is to keep building. If the unit can sustain those longer drives like they did against the Giants, it’ll be critical on the road.
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
Tre’Davious White:
Washington WR Terry McLaurin has said Tre’Davious White is one of the toughest CBs he’s faced.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) September 21, 2021
Here’s why: pic.twitter.com/dKtMHvNRJK
A couple weeks ago McLaurin said Tre’Davious White was one of the best corners he’s faced. Said today White can run step-for-step with receivers and does a good job of undercutting routes.
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
Adam Humphries:
Terry McLaurin says he sometimes call Adam Humphries "Third and Humph" because he is so trustworthy in clutch spots. "Every group of receivers in the league needs a guy like Adam Humphries... He can do a lot for us" pic.twitter.com/yXh9OKHyyb
— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) September 21, 2021
Attacking the CB:
Good point by Terry McLaurin just now: One of his favorite things an offense can do is attack a corner on back to back plays. WFT did that with him vs. James Bradberry on Thursday. In those spots, the CB's head is spinning about the last throw and then you hit them again

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) September 21, 2021
Cosmi said his “welcome to the NFL” moment was going against Chase Young and Montez Sweat on a daily basis. He got put on his butt a couple times, he said, but he’s adapt and held his own while still learning.
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
Sam Cosmi: "My Welcome to the NFL was in training camp, going against Chase [Young] and Montez [Sweat] every day. Those guys are freaks."
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) September 21, 2021
Brandon Scherff:
Cosmi: it’s an honor to block next to Brandon Scherff
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
Making progress:
Cosmi said he worked on trying to get his head out of blocks and get a quicker kick step. It takes time to adjust those traits, but he’s working hard and he’s making progress.
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) September 21, 2021
Success in the run game:
Asked about his success in the run game, Sam Cosmi has a short explanation: "I just put my hat down and go."

Such a great O-linemen answer

Top NFL teams:

Welcome to the NFL:
Davis said he’s learned the most by getting “put on my butt by a lineman” in Week 1. That will make you learn fast
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) September 21, 2021
Jamin Davis says the first couple of weeks he’s had to get used to the speed of the pros. Has been “put on his butt a few times” too and even lined up improperly here or there. Thinks that he’s ready to start playing his brand of football now though pic.twitter.com/zkXh4q7LSj
