Washington Redskins head coach Ron Rivera has been consistent in his message from the start, in regards to the Redskins quarterback situation. He established in his opening press conference that he felt Dwayne Haskins had franchise quarterback upside, but the incumbent rookie needed to take on more of a leadership role in 2020.
Scott Turner reflected that tone when he spoke on the Ohio State product after his hiring, expressing his excitement to work with the talented passer, whom he felt had the traits necessary to flourish in Turner’s new offense. There’s still a lot of learning that needs to be done before Haskins is where he needs to be, but it appears as though Haskins is taking this opportunity and running with it.
