Taylor Heinicke (ankle) doing what he can to play in finale

Atlanta Falcons QB Taylor Heinicke is dealing with a left ankle injury and “will do everything he can to play” in Week 18. The team will prepare QB Desmond Ridder in case Heinicke can not go.

Fantasy Impact: Heinicke’s status should be monitored during practices this week to see if he misses any time or is limited all week. The Falcons still have a narrow, yet possible, path to the playoffs, and they will likely look to do what they can to win. Heinicke hasn’t wowed as a starter this season, but the team committed to him as the starter down the stretch.
