It’s still pretty shocking that we’re starting an NFL season with Dwayne Haskins on somebody’s roster.
The Steelers quarterback died earlier this year after being hit by a car in South Florida where he’d been training for the upcoming season. Fans and peers everywhere had their collective hearts broken when the news broke.
The Steelers, who were his last NFL team, have done much to honor him in the aftermath of his passing. Immediately when the news came down, Mike Tomlin released a heartfelt statement about who he was as a player and person in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers are taking things a step further this year in honoring him. They’ll be rocking Haskins’ number 3 on a helmet sticker this year.
