LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Chargers have agreed to a trade with the Atlanta Falcons for quarterback Taylor Heinicke, a source confirmed to ESPN.
The Chargers will send the Falcons a conditional sixth-round pick, the source said.
This move wasn't a surprise. The Chargers have one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL in Justin Herbert, but after he missed two weeks of training camp with a plantar fascia injury in his right foot, it was clear the backup quarterbacks were ill-prepared to keep the team afloat if Herbert's injury lingered.
