Dwayne Haskins Already Stressing Out About Getting Destroyed by Khalil Mack
By Zack Jiang
NFL rookies have to make many adjustments when they arrive to the big stage. The schemes are much more complicated and the players they're up against are much faster, stronger and fiercer than they're used to.
As Dwayne Haskins competes for the starting job in Washington, he's already taking note of who to watch out for. When asked by TMZ about who he'd be worried about getting hit by, Haskins immediately brought up Khalil Mack.
In Haskins' exact words, "Khalil Mack is somebody I would not want to be touched by."
Nobody should blame Haskins for worrying about Mack. The Chicago superstar continuously tossed aside offensive linemen and pummeled quarterbacks all of last season on his way to 12.5 sacks.
If Haskins wins the starting job early, he'll have to face his fears pretty quickly as the Bears and Redskins are set to face off in Week 3.
It won't just be Mack that Haskins will be worried about if he starts against the Bears, though. Chicago's defense is comprised of multiple All-Pro players and they'll all undoubtedly be gunning for the rookie.
Winning the starting job would be a dream come true for Haskins, but as a result he'd have to quickly face the nightmare known as Khalil Mack.
