Ron Rivera said Taylor Heinicke will start vs. Philly on Sunday, but "we'll see" beyond that.

"Will we play Kyle [Allen]? Probably. But we're going to stick with Taylor for now," said Rivera in the tweet. Rivera went on to say via the tweet, it's not "an indictment" on Heinicke, but more about wanting to see Allen play. Either way, it's not good news for Heinicke because there isn't a lot Allen is going to offer at this point.

Signs continue to point to recently-signed Garrett Gilbert starting tonight at QB for the WFT,

That decision is still pending a final round of COVID testing for Heinicke and Allen, per sources. It is a 25-minute private flight from DC to Philly, so always a chance, Schefter went on to say. However, Schefter added it's looking bleak. It's a key game for both teams in terms of the playoffs so if The WFT can get Heinicke or Allen to the game, they will likely do what they can if one or both are negative.

McLaurin (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Tuesday's game against the Eagles.

McLaurin fully participated in each of Washington's three practice sessions this week, the story said. While it's good news he'll be back after a concussion, who will be throwing him the ball is another story. It's unclear who will be able to start for The Football Team at QB heading into Tuesday night's game. No matter who it is, McLaurin should draw a lot of targets at least.

WFT QB Taylor Heinicke has been added to the reserve/COVID-19 list.

It is time to fade the WFT offense this week.

WFT QB Kyle Allen has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Taylor Heinicke (knee) is on track to start Week 15.

Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke had to exit Sunday’s game with a knee injury, but at this point it still doesn’t sound serious.

Heinicke said after the game that his knee was fine and he should be ready to face the Eagles in Week 15. On Monday, head coach Ron Rivera told reporters in his press conference that Heinicke is sore and the team will monitor him over the course of the week. Allen replaced Heinicke in the fourth quarter and went 4-of-9 passing for 53 yards. Heinicke also played through an elbow issue on Sunday.

The Washington Football Team begins its bye week with a 2-6 record, a depleted roster, an underperforming defense and an offense with no identity. Changes are needed, but Coach Ron Rivera will keep one constant, at least for now: Taylor Heinicke.

Despite the team’s four-game slide and its inefficiency on offense, Rivera said Monday that he plans to stick with Heinicke as Washington’s starting quarterback.

Fitzpatrick is scheduled to get an MRI next week and there is a chance he could get cleared to return to practice, however playing in Week 10 could be a stretch. The WFT hosts Tampa Bay off the bye. Given Heinicke hasn't claimed a full grasp on the position, Fitz could have a chance to get back under center at some point. However, there doesn't seem to be any guarantee Fitzpatrick returns depending on the MRI results and it's also possible he's shut down for the remainder of the season. Allen is the current backup to Heinicke with Fitz on IR.

A report over the weekend indicated that Washington quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is not close to returning from the hip injury he suffered in Week 1 and head coach Ron Rivera confirmed that is the case on Monday.

Rivera told reporters at his press conference that Fitzpatrick will have an MRI to evaluate how his hip is recovering in two weeks. That will be eight weeks after he suffered the injury, which was the longer end of a six-to-eight week timeline that was reported at the time of his injury.

As the story said, should Fitzpatrick not be ready to resume football activities at that point, one imagines there will be some discussion about whether he’ll be able to return at all this season. If he can return, there is no guarantee he'll assume the starting job again. Heinicke has started at quarterback in Fitzpatrick’s absence.

Ron Rivera said Monday he is not considering replacing Taylor Heinicke with Kyle Allen as Washington's starting quarterback.

Rivera feels Heinicke is showing improvement. That means Heinicke is set to make his sixth consecutive start Sunday at the Green Bay Packers. Heinicke was 24 of 39 for 172 yards, a touchdown and an interception in a 31-13 loss to Kansas City that dropped Washington to 2-4. Reports have said Fitzpatrick could come off IR this week after a hip injury, but there has been no update and there was no mention in this story.

Washington Football Team QB Ryan Fitzpatrick suffered a hip subluxation, knocking him out several weeks and likely meaning a stint on IR. He'll have an MRI today to determine how much time he'll miss.

It's essentially a dislocated hip. Rapoport said it could go a couple of different ways - it could be extremely serious where he doesn't play at all for the rest of this year, or it could be minor. But at the very least, Fitz is going to miss several weeks, so a stint on IR makes a lot of sense here. He went on to say the team will look inward first, meaning Heinicke and Allen will get the chances. It appears for now, bringing in Newton doesn't look to be on the table.
