You’ve heard rumors that Washington Redskins quarterback Dwayne Haskins has been in the gym this offseason, doing everything he can to get better, but you may not have believed it. Looking for proof? Exhibit A is listed above.
In a photo that Haskins posted to Twitter on Thursday, he appears to be in incredible shape, with a layer of what we’ll call ‘baby fat’ no longer with him. He said on social media that he is down to 220 pounds — he was listed at 231 last season — and is noticeably thinner in the glimpses that we’ve got from him this offseason.
Not only will this help his endurance during the games, but it will also allow him to move around in the pocket a bit more and improvise in the backfield. Haskins was always said to have some limited mobility as a quarterback, and hopefully, this change in weight will help alleviate that.
We can’t always see the work that Haskins is putting into his craft, but we at least can see some of the results. So far, he’s looking great.
