Doug Williams: Naming Redskins' starting QB will be group decision

If rookie Dwayne Haskins starts Week 1 for the Washington Redskins, it won’t be just coach Jay Gruden’s call.

Redskins senior vice president of player personnel Doug Williams told the NFL Network that the team’s starter at quarterback next season will be a group decision.

Haskins, who was drafted 15th overall in April, is competing for the job against veterans Case Keenum and Colt McCoy.

“I know there’s words out there that (Haskins) might end up starting, and that could happen,” Williams said, “but at the end of the day that’s going to be on Jay, myself and probably Bruce (Allen) and the owner (Dan Snyder), and what he does during preseason and to see where we are as a team to make that decision.
