Funny moment of mistaken identity while leaving Super Bowl Radio Row. Was chatting with free agent quarterback Taylor Heinicke when fans tried to stop him for autographs and pictures. They thought he was Christian McCaffrey. Heinicke was gracious with the mistake.

The funny part of this is that Heinicke and McCaffrey were once teammates with the Carolina Panthers, hence the featured image.

Do you see a resemblance?

Regardless of whether Heinicke re-signs with Washington or not, he’s built up enough goodwill with fans that he shouldn’t have to worry about a case of mistaken identity around the DMV.
