The entire situation surrounding Haskins‘ death is nothing short of absolutely tragic. Nobody seems to know why he was walking on a road in the early morning hours, and this new detail from Slater only makes the waters even muddier.

Hopefully, the police are able to get to the bottom of what happened and find out why Haskins was out on the road walking around. Right now, there doesn’t seem to be any good reason, and it’s the biggest question of the case.

More than anything, Haskins dying is a reminder just how fragile life can be. He was only 24 years old, and instead of preparing for another year in the NFL, he’s dead.
It’s absolutely heartbreaking, and the fact fans and his family seemingly have zero answers about why he was out on the road only makes the situation worse.
When you think of Dwayne Haskins, think about his smile. Think of the positive impact he wanted to have on the people around him.
