Teammates, players and coaches collectively mourned on Twitter after former Washington quarterback Dwayne Haskins passed away on Saturday.

Praying for his wife, parents & all who knew him as we grieve the loss of the man & the impact he was poised to have on society with his unique gifts. But let’s not give that duo the light of day. Dwayne was a young man of great intellect who cared deeply about his loved ones & the world.

Dwayne Haskins was much more than a statistical line in the NFL when he died at 24. He was a kid still learning to be a man, and there was hope he would, ...

He was still at the beginning, a kid becoming a man. And in the hours after Dwayne Haskins died at 24, that was the saddest thing of all. At the end of his time in Washington he looked lost, playing worse than he did at the start. He had a future. He had a fresh start. They said he was a natural. They said he was special. He was never rude. They said he was a quick learner. Complicating things is that several people familiar with the team’s pre-draft deliberations said owner Daniel Snyder forced team executives to pick Haskins over the objections of coaches and then-president Bruce Allen. It meant Haskins had to begin his career playing for a coaching staff that didn’t want him. Dwayne Haskins’s smile was one of the first things that came to mind on the day he died. Those who knew Haskins best — both after his move as a teenager from New Jersey to Maryland’s Montgomery County, where he attended Bullis School, and later at Ohio State — have always described someone gifted with a brilliant mind as well as the ability to throw a football as hard and as far as he wanted.
