Life has changed, perhaps forever, for former Old Dominion University quarterback Taylor Heinicke.
That was certain to happen after a January NFL playoff game in which he completed 26 of 44 passes for 306 yards and ran six more times for 46 yards and a touchdown and nearly led the Washington Football Team to an upset over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
It was a remarkable performance that turned Heinicke into something of a celebrity. Brady and the Bucs went on to win the Super Bowl. Heinicke, meanwhile, saw his NFL career resurrected essentially from the NFL graveyard.
