>Dwayne Haskins died from car hit; but is that the real cause of death? DIG CALL.

Hit by a car changed to hit by a DUMP TRUCK

"Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins was killed Saturday morning when he was hit by a dump truck while walking on a South Florida highway.

Haskins, 24, had been in South Florida to train with other Steelers quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers.

The accident happened around 6:37 a.m. on I-595 West at the I-95 interchange outside Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Haskins was killed in the accident, but officials did not reveal why he was walking on the highway, said Lt. Indiana Miranda, highway patrol spokeswoman.

“He was just walking on the highway and got hit,” Miranda said.

The driver “is in full cooperation” with the investigation, she told The Post.

The former Ohio State standout had been in the NFL since 2019, first with Washington and then as a third-string quarterback with the Steelers. The Steelers re-signed him this offseason to a one-year contract worth $2.5 million.

“I am devastated and at a loss for words with the unfortunate passing of Dwayne Haskins,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said in a statement. “He quickly became part of our Steelers family upon his arrival in Pittsburgh and was one of our hardest workers both on the field and in our community. Dwayne was a great teammate, but even more so a tremendous friend to so many. I am truly heartbroken. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Kalabrya, and his entire family during this difficult time.”

Ran across 2 lanes of an interstate highway? wut?

Haskins committed to University of Maryland (Over Rutgers) but went to Ohio State instead. Must be a story there somewhere.

Played for the Redskins, the Redskins Curse is a real thing.. See Theisman, they "unretired" Theisman's #7 for Haskins. His nickname was Simba (see The Lion King)
