  Steelers | Dwayne Haskins killed at 24    Sat Apr 9, 11:27 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Dwayne Haskins, 24, was killed early Saturday, April 9, after he was struck by a car in South Florida.

Footballguys view: Just an awful story today. Haskins was a first-round pick for Washington in the 2019 NFL draft, and he spent last season with the Steelers trying to rejuvenate his career. We send condolences to his family and friends.

  Steelers | Pittsburgh will add QBs this offseason    Mon Feb 21, 06:42 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Mason Rudolph and restricted free-agent QB Dwayne Haskins will be on the roster this offseason, but general manager Kevin Colbert said the team plans to add two more quarterbacks via free agency, trade or NFL Draft.

Footballguys view: Zero surprise here. The Steelers need to find an upgrade at the quarterback position in a big way. Rudolph does not inspire confidence and Haskins is a reclamation project as a failed first-round pick from Washington. Expect the Steelers to add a quarterback in the draft as earlier reports have indicated they won't be super active (for quarterback) in free agency. Stay tuned.

  Steelers | PIT likely to place tender on Dwayne Haskins    Sun Jan 23, 11:55 AM

The Pittsburgh Steelers are likely to place a restricted free agent tender on QB Dwayne Haskins, according to a source. Haskins expects this to be an original-round tender, which would pay in the range of $2.5 million.

Footballguys view: Haskins will compete with Mason Rudolph and possibly a draft pick or another veteran signing to be the Steelers quarterback next year, which is not great news for any part of this offense.

  Steelers | Dwayne Haskins has a shot    Wed Jan 19, 12:34 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Dwayne Haskins said he'll have a chance to compete for the starting quarterback position next year.

Footballguys view: The post-Roethlisberger era with the Steelers will have some struggles - especially since reports and buzz around the team indicate they will not make a play for a top-tier quarterback via trade this offseason. That means Haskins and Mason Rudolph could be their options in 2022...with maybe a rookie thrown into the mix as well.

  Steelers | Pittsburgh could have QB competition in 2022    Sun Jan 16, 01:46 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers QBs Mason Rudolph and Dwayne Haskins may compete with a draft pick for the starting quarterback job next season since the team does not usually trade their first-round draft choices for a player like Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers or Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson, according a source.

Footballguys view: This was the buzz around the Steelers about a month ago. They will see Ben Roethlisberger likely retire after this season, and then they'll see if Rudolph or Haskins has what it takes to start. We're sorry Steelers fans, but that's not a recipe for success. The buzz has been they'll roll with what they have and not trade for a big-name quarterback like Rodgers or Wilson.

  Steelers | Dwayne Haskins will start preseason finale    Wed Aug 25, 09:35 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Dwayne Haskins will start the preseason finale Friday, Aug. 27.

Footballguys view: The Steelers want to see if Haskins can get his career on track as a reserve this year. The former first-round pick for Washington got a fresh start in Pittsburgh, and they could use a young quarterback to develop behind Ben Roethlisberger. They do have Mason Rudolph to take over if/when Roethlisberger is banged up, but Haskins might be a better long-term option. We'll see what he looks like with the start all to himself on Friday.

Footballguys view: Haskins could unseat Mason Rudolph as the backup quarterback and potential 2022 starter with a good camp and preseason. He had garnered some praise with his play this spring and could surprise with a fresh start.

  Steelers | Dwayne Haskins receives praise    Tue Jun 1, 06:22 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Dwayne Haskins has looked great early in organized team activities, according to QB Ben Roethlisberger Tuesday, June 1. Roethlisberger said Haskins' throwing mechanics 'are some of the prettiest I've seen.'

Footballguys view: There was a lot to like about Haskins when he came out of Ohio State in 2019. He's got a rocket arm, and Haskins played with poise - attacking a defense deep and making high/low reads with ease. Things fell apart for him with Washington, and now he's getting a second chance with the Steelers. If he puts it all together, perhaps Haskins could be an option for the Steelers after Ben Roethlisberger is done. At this time, Pittsburgh seems to be counting on Mason Rudolph as a future starter and that's not a great plan. It's not like Haskins is a guarantee, but his upside is higher if he finally starts playing up to his potential.

  Steelers | Dwayne Haskins signs with PIT    Thu Jan 21, 02:07 PM

Updating a previous report, free-agent QB Dwayne Haskins (Washington Football Team) on Thursday, Jan. 21, agreed to a one-year contract offer from the Pittsburgh Steelers, per a source.

Footballguys view: The Steelers take a chance on the former first-round pick here. Haskins was Washington's top pick in the 2019 NFL draft, but he failed to impress while starting 13 games over two seasons. He'll try to get his career back on track but Haskins is no lock for the 53-man roster. The Steelers need to find some young quarterback to groom behind Ben Roethlisberger and Haskins could be that guy.

  Panthers | Dwayne Haskins to visit Carolina    Sat Jan 9, 08:08 AM

Updating previous reports, free-agent QB Dwayne Haskins (Washington) is scheduled to visit the Carolina Panthers Monday, Jan. 11, according to multiple sources.

Footballguys view: The Panthers seem like a good fit for Haskins. They have Teddy Bridgewater as their clear-cut starter but Haskins could compete as a reserve and get his career back on track. Haskins is taking his time to find a new home and has a few teams interested in making him a reclamation project.

  NFL | Dwayne Haskins unlikely to sign now    Wed Dec 30, 01:10 PM

Free-agent QB Dwayne Haskins (Washington) is receiving interest from several teams but is not expected to sign with a team before the end of the 2020 season, according to sources.

Footballguys view: Haskins is going to wait just to see if more interest can be drummed up. The 2018 first-round pick fell out of favor with the new staff in Washington. On the field he struggled with consistency and off the field, well...let's just say that part didn't make the team happy either. Any team that adds Haskins will do so with the idea that he's a reclamation project. It's doubtful that some team does anything more than let him compete for a spot on the depth chart in 2021.

They'll be looking for an upgrade over Teddy Bridgewater this offseason. Haskins is not that, but instead he's a reclamation project for any team that adds him.

Washington Football Team QB Dwayne Haskins was waived Monday, Dec. 28.

Footballguys view: Things change quickly around here.

He finishes his career in Washington with 12 passing touchdowns, 14 interceptions and 2,804 yards passing over two seasons (16 games total).

Washington Football Team QB Dwayne Haskins was fined $4,833 by the National Football League for violating the team's COVID-19 protocols. According to a source, he made a reservation for a family friend at the club's hotel, which is strictly prohibited.

Footballguys view: This fine is unlikely to heal any sort of fractures the relationship Haskins may now have with the organization. Washington is set to dress two quarterbacks (Kyle Allen, Alex Smith) and that means Haskins will likely be a healthy scratch again in Week 7. There's a chance he could be dealt before the trade deadline.
