Dwayne Haskins will remain the Redskins starter for the rest of 2019

At the start of the bye week, a report came out presuming that the Washington Redskins would start rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins for the team’s Week 11 game against the 2-7 New York Jets. The report was widely presented as an official release, but it was only the expectation around the league that Haskins would start.

Now, pursuant to Bill Callahan’s first press conference of the new week, we have official confirmation that Dwayne Haskins will be the Redskins starter for Week 11. And onward. Per ESPN’s John Keim, Callahan announced during his press conference that Haskins will remain the Redskins starting quarterback for the rest of the 2019 season.
