Washington releases QB Dwayne Haskins

Washington has released QB Dwayne Haskins.

Related players: Alex Smith, Taylor Heinicke

Fantasy Impact:

Washington had to start Haskins in Week 16 despite Haskins violating COVID rules by not wearing a mask at a nightclub. To top that off, Haskins was awful in a game that could have sealed the division for Washington. He was eventually replaced by Heinicke. Smith is expected to be back in Week 17 when the team faces the Eagles. The team just needs a win to win the division.

Washington says QB Alex Smith was close to playing Week 16

Ron Rivera said Alex Smith was "very close" to playing Sunday after having an "exceptional day" of practice Friday.

Fantasy Impact:

The tweet added when they checked in on him Saturday, he just wasn't quite there. Haskins started instead, was terrible and eventually got pulled for Heinicke. Expect Smith to be ready to go for a prime time game vs. the Eagles in Week 17. A Washington win means they make the playoffs as the NFC East Champion.

Dwayne Haskins benched after miserable day

Washington QB Dwayne Haskins has been benched in favor of Taylor Heinicke

Fantasy Impact:

Haskins had a miserable first half with a pair of interceptions and his second half didn’t go much better. He finished 14/28 for 154 yards, two interceptions and was sacked twice and lost a fumble. Washington is limping to the finish line and are now looking at a must-win game against Philadelphia in Week 17. Such a perfect way to end the NFC East season.

Social media posts show Washington QB Dwayne Haskins maskless in a club

Tom Pelissero on Twitter

The Washington Football Team is aware of social media posts showing QB Dwayne Haskins partying maskless in a strip club, was in contact with the NFL yesterday about the matter and is handling the matter internally, I’m told.

Related players: Alex Smith, Steven Montez, Taylor Heinicke

Fantasy Impact:

Pelissero went on to say in another tweet Washington has no plans to release Haskins, who was fined for a previous COVID-19 protocol violation. Going to a nightclub without PPE is considered “High Risk COVID-19 Conduct,” punishable by a maximum fine of one week’s salary or up to four-game suspension, Pelissero went on to say. Washington plays a key game against Carolina this week, but it's possible Haskins is punished by the team or even placed on the COVID list if they think he is at risk. Smith is recovering from a calf injury, but given the importance of the game, may be forced back into action as Washington has a chance to win the NFC East.
