Ron Rivera Presser: The only way we can find out if Dwayne Haskins can do it is to keep him on the field

Ron Rivera is now 1-2 as the Washington Football Team’s head coach. Today’s game was a turnover-filled mess, and the Browns got the 34-20. Rivera said he told Dwayne Haskins Jr. that he is sticking with him at QB after his 4 turnover day. This is basically Haskins rookie season, and Rivera wants to see what he has in his young QB. The only way to do that is to keep him on the field, and “take his lumps” with him.

Washington lost Chase Young(groin) and Matt Ioannidis(arm) to injury, and needed other players to step up.
