Taylor Heinicke made the start Thursday against the New York Giants for the Washington Football team and delivered a spectacular pass to Ricky Seals-Jones in the fourth quarter.
Heinicke threw a strike to the tight end who made a great grab in the end zone for six points.
Watch as Seals-Jones, who made his first catch for the WFT on the play, goes up to get the football and comes down with both feet inbounds.
After the PAT, Washington held a 27-26 lead.
Heinicke was starting because Ryan Fitzpatrick suffered a hip injury in the WFT opener and will be lost for more than a month.

The play before the touchdown saw Heinicke hit J.D. McKissic on another nice play that wound up going for 56 yards.
