Re: RIP Dwayne Haskins
Is it really necessary to point out his struggles though? Just say ex Washington/Steeler QB. That's all that was needed.
Gil Brandt's comments though were way out of line and uncalled for. |

Re: RIP Dwayne Haskins
agree, easily could have said former starter at washington and now backup qb at pitt.

Re: RIP Dwayne Haskins
What I remember most was the time he took that selfie w/ those kids when it was the end of the game. He got killed for it but I loved it. He got caught up in the moment a bit and went over to those kids and took that picture. The look on those kids faces was priceless. I personally just loved it. Thought the media made way too big a deal out of it.

Dwayne was a good guy. His issues- if that is the term- were not too different from what most young men experience. I made lots of mistakes when I was that age, but I was not in the limelight. RIP Dwayne. HTTR. |

Re: RIP Dwayne Haskins
I think we forget they are in their early twenties all these "men", i have interns in my office that sometimes it feels more like baby sitting then managing them.

In a way, Dwayne was bit like Tim Robbins' character in Bull Durham. Decent talent, but with the quest for "fun" that young men almost always have in abundance. And maybe Mike Tomlin was his "Crash" and would have steered him towards a respectable career. |
