Schefter’s initial, since-deleted tweet read: “Dwayne Haskins, a standout at Ohio State before struggling to catch on with Washington and Pittsburgh in the NFL, died this morning when he got hit by a car in South Florida, per his agent Cedric Saunders. Haskins would have turned 25 years old on May 3.”

I thought Schefter's tweet was fine. Hes a reporter and people reading his news might not know who Dwayne Haskins is.
Seems harsh to us bc we know who Haskins is and are football fans so it seems like info he didnt need to put in there but probably important context to someone who didnt know who Haskins is.
Cardale Jones tweet can include personals like "son, brother, husband, Buckeye brother etc .."
Schefter is a reporter and he sent out a news report type tweet.
Brandt's on air comments were insensitive. Guessing about his personal life and choices etc things Brandt doesnt know anything about.
