ASHBURN, Va. -- Wide receiver Terry McLaurin escorted quarterback Taylor Heinicke to the locker room after the Washington Football Team had nearly pulled off a big upset of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2020 NFL playoffs. McLaurin had an arm draped around Heinicke's shoulder as their teammates walked slowly into a tunnel.
"I appreciate you," McLaurin told Heinicke, who had been with Washington about a month when he was tapped to start the playoff game against Tom Brady's Buccaneers -- the eventual Super Bowl LV champion.
