It’s clear that Dwayne Haskins’ horrific and tragic death is weighing heavy on the hearts and minds of OSU fans and players. Haskins paved the way for guys like Justin Fields and C.J. Stroud to succeed in Columbus.
Now, at the age of 24, he has passed onto the other side. It’s nothing short of heartbreaking.
