I just saw this. That is way too young. You just never know.
Wow, was just watching him throw passes to the two OSU receivers in this draft.
This is terrible news. My heart goes out to his family :'(

Just saw on NFLN. Was hit by a dump truck. Jesus. Just nothing went right for him from the moment he left OSU. Tragic.
Dude was walking on a highway, a freeway at that… why I’m not sure.
Struggling to find the words to express how crushing this news is today. Dwayne had such a positive energetic outlook on life and always treated people with genuine kindness. So Talented and with so much positive ahead in his life. Thoughts and Prayers to the Haskins Family. pic.twitter.com/BsfEYtBOLu

Why he was crossing this, which has no place to cross for pedestrians, is beyond me. He was either wasted or somehow else impaired. Guaranteed. Or.....just a REALLY bad choice. From all accounts, a nice young man. Tragic.

This all went down at 6:37am.
There's a Hardrock Casino hotel near there, he might have been staying there. But you still don't walk over 595, its a major artery with no pedestrian access.

Dayum...Hope he's resting in peace now. Thats way too young to meet your maker.
Schefter’s tweet is such a disgrace to reporting. Hopefully we get some additional details as this seems fishy. Tough situation for his loved ones as you could tell he was a well-liked person

Yeah, that was bad. Not shocked a 90 year old dude would say that on the radio

Why are 90 year old relics on radio?Which inevitably brings up why are 70,80,90 year olds running Washington???
Doh!!
Anyways, my thoughts are with the Haskins family now.

I knew it had to be this. If you knew the area where he was hit by a dump truck like I do, you'd get it. There's just NO place for pedestrians. Its a HEAVILY used bypass road (595). Heavy alcohol, Ketamine and a fight with a friend.
He left a woman in his car so he could go get gas -- don't you have a friend you can call and ask for some assistance getting gas?
