Washington Redskins rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins will be the starter for the rest of the season, interim coach Bill Callahan said Monday.
Haskins, 22, made his first NFL start before the Redskins’ just-completed bye week.
He completed 15 of 22 passes for 144 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in a 24-9 loss at Buffalo on Nov. 3. He also rushed three times for 14 yards and was sacked four times against the Bills.
The 15th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft out of Ohio State, Haskins is 27 of 44 for 284 yards with no TDs and four interceptions in three appearances.
Case Keenum will be Haskins’ backup, with Colt McCoy serving as the No. 3 quarterback on Sunday when the Redskins (1-8) host the New York Jets (2-7).
