Taylor Heinicke named Week 9 starter for Falcons

The Falcons have named QB Taylor Heinicke as their Week 9 starter.

Fantasy Impact: Heinicke will get the start for the Falcons against the Vikings Sunday. The 30-year-old was solid in the second half last week, completing 57.1% of his passes for 175 yards and one touchdown against the Titans. Fantasy managers should expect a more efficient offense with the veteran under center.
