Steelers QB and former OSU star Dwayne Haskins struck and KILLED by car

And what I noticed was a Mack truck, or a big tractor-trailer, with also another vehicle that started moving a little bit to the left,” said Stanley. “I was in the left lane and then there was the right lane. And then I noticed an individual there starting to make their way onto the road."

Stanley said he saw the man's arms raised up a little bit as he appeared to be drifting into the major highway.

“He was about halfway, to a quarter way in the right lane, already onto the highway and I was already concerned that somebody was going to strike him right there at that moment," he said.

Stanley said he was so concerned that he dialed 911 and shared a screenshot of his call log with NBC 6 with a call to 911 at 6:31 a.m. — six minutes before Florida Highway Patrol officials said the crash was reported at 6:37 a.m.

To repeat....there were thurs and fri several things posted on the internet saying either that this guy was for sure not going to make the team or that his stock was headed down. Then I watched on Sat as they were taken down, and then Google scrubbed the links.

I am assuming nothing, I am reporting what I watched happen.
 
Dwayne Haskins was dehumanized in the wake of his tragic death

When Daniel Wilcox read the tweet ESPN’s Adam Schefter posted to break the news of NFL quarterback Dwayne Haskins’ death, he thought about how some view athletes as mere entertainers without taking the time to see them as human...

“Haskins has a family, and they’re hurting,” says Wilcox. “You’re pointing out a flaw in someone instead of embracing the fact that someone has just lost their life. There’s a level of insensitivity. With being a reporter, sometimes you want to be the first one to get it out and you don’t think about the people that you affect when you say things.”

This is not the first time Schefter has appeared to be more excited about breaking news that thinking about people’s humanity. When a grand jury decided not to indict Deshaun Watson on sexual assault charges earlier this year, Schefter’s tweet read like a PR statement for the quarterback: “This is why Deshaun Watson, from the beginning, welcomed a police investigation: He felt he knew that the truth would come out.” Many pointed out that a failure to indict is not a proclamation of innocence and that Watson is still under investigation by the NFL and in civil lawsuits over allegations of sexual misconduct made by 22 women...

It was left to other athletes and those who knew and loved Haskins to step in and remind us that we didn’t lose a football player this weekend, we lost a person. Steelers linebacker TJ Watt remembered that Haskins “was always making people smile, never taking life for granted.” His head coach Mike Tomlin said that Haskins “was one of our hardest workers, both on the field and in our community.” Even Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder, perhaps the least sympathetic figure in the NFL, managed to give Haskins the humanity others could not. “He was a young man with a tremendous amount of potential who had infectious personality. To say we are heartbroken is an understatement,” Snyder and his wife Tanya said in a statement."

He was dead, he did not care, but this is insight into the information embargo.
 
For sure we are not allowed to talk about how he squandered his talent, that would be "dehumanizing" according to the WOKE who dont believe in personal responsibility.

This thread is really an eye-opener into what we've become, and who we are now.

It's extremely sad.

Last night I texted one of my friends who knows a lot about the team and he told me the Steelers were going to look at QBs in the upcoming draft. And I asked what would happen if they drafted someone and Haskins hadn't been killed. And he said it's possible they'd have 4 QBs on the team this year, like they did last year... and several other times in the past. He said it wasn't a slam-dunk that Haskins would have been cut, and also that the team is interested in Malik Willis as their 1st pick.

So, you were right and I was wrong when I said the Steelers weren't going to get another QB. But getting another QB didn't automatically translate to Haskins getting cut, either.

Also.....You are right about them being interested in Willis. The draft is a funny thing and how it all works. Teams put out a lot of dis info for obvious reasons...LOL Willis is good, ...but he is actually the Steelers second choice. Their first choice was the Kid from the U of Pittsburgh " Pickett" He probably would have fell right to the Steelers too but recently Pickets stock has skyrocketed so now he will probably end up going much higher in the draft and selected before the Steelers turn comes up,....therefor Willis. Either way,....they will be fine. Tomlin is an excellent coach.

I dont think we will lose. The problem I see is that we could easily become something WORSE then the woke. Something brutal and terrible. Thats no good either.
 
I was till yesterday very confident that if this was suicide that some portion of the Establishment will eventually tell us that.

I am less confident today.
