Dwayne Haskins’ first NFL touchdown is a thing of beauty.
Haskins made a couple of nice plays in his preseason debut last week, but the rest of the game was not so kind. He threw a couple of interceptions, including one brutal pass that was returned for a pick-6.
There are bound to be some growing pains for the rookie quarterback. However, he showed why he was a first-round draft pick on this play.
Haskins quickly recognized a blitz was coming on this play. He stood tall in the pocket and unleashed a throw deep downfield. Needless to say, his throw was on the money, hitting his receiver in stride while taking the hit.
There aren’t many quarterbacks that can make this throw consistently:
