‘That should be an average day’; Dwayne Haskins not satisfied with career day

Dwayne Haskins had the best performance of his career on Sunday, going 18-for-29 for 261 yards and two touchdowns in a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

But this isn’t about moral victories for Haskins — he thinks that those stats should be just another Sunday when all is said and done.

Regardless of what he says after the game, Haskins finally looked like a first-round pick on Sunday, as he played in front of his college coach Urban Meyer, though he says he didn’t know Meyer was in attendance. With an ability to get the ball out on time and elude pressure in the pocket, the rookie was able to keep his eyes downfield and connect with his trio of rookie receivers.

It’s been a long season so far for Haskins, but things are starting to shape up, slowly but surely. If things keep progressing like this for the rookie, then he can definitely have a long and bright future.
