## Caption

Dwayne Haskins first captured the attention of the football world during a historic 2018 season at Ohio State, where he set numerous Big Ten records, including single-season passing yards and touchdowns. His elite accuracy and pocket presence earned him a spot as a Heisman Trophy finalist and led the Buckeyes to a Rose Bowl victory. This collegiate success translated into him being selected fifteenth overall in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Washington Commanders. Although his time in Washington was marked by the typical ups and downs of a young quarterback, he eventually moved on to the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he sought to revitalize his career under a new system and mentorship.

The trajectory of his life changed unexpectedly during the 2022 offseason while he was in Florida training with his Steelers teammates. On the morning of April 9, 2022, his vehicle reportedly ran out of fuel on an interstate near Fort Lauderdale. While attempting to traverse the highway on foot to seek assistance, he was struck by a passing vehicle in a tragic accident. The news of his passing resonated deeply across the league, as players and fans remembered the talent and charisma he brought to the game. His legacy remains preserved through his record-breaking performances and the impact he had on the communities where he played.
