Veteran NFL quarterback Taylor Heinecke is hanging up his cleats.

Heinecke spent 10 years in the NFL, with a brief stint in the XFL. Fans of the Washington Commanders will remember him for his heroic, albeit futile, effort in the 2020 Wild Card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Heinecke spent last offseason with the Los Angeles Chargers.
