About Dwayne Haskins

Dwayne Haskins Jr. was an American professional football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for three seasons.

He won the Sammy Baugh Trophy and Kellen Moore Award, along with several conference honors. Haskins was selected by the Washington Redskins in the first round of the 2019 NFL draft, but was released after less than two seasons due to inconsistent play and questions over his work ethic.
