Colin Cowherd Lists Late Dwayne Haskins in Segment on Current NFL QBs

FS1’s Colin Cowherd came under fire Tuesday following a segment on The Herd in which he discussed various quarterbacks’ potential to win a Super Bowl.

When listing the 20 quarterbacks he thinks “are not getting to a Super Bowl,” Cowherd included former Commanders and Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins, who died in April 2022.

“And then the third category is 20 guys who are not getting to a Super Bowl and certainly not winning it. And that’s everybody else. From Baker Mayfield, Teddy Bridgewater, Dwayne Haskins, guys that are just not …” Cowherd said before pointing out an error on the graphic displayed on-screen. 

Haskins was killed after being hit by a dump truck while trying to cross an interstate in Florida on foot. He was 24. His family filed a lawsuit in Broward County in April, alleging a “blackmail and robbery conspiracy” linked to his death. 

His error didn’t go unnoticed by the show’s viewers and NFL fans on social media. After clips of the segment were posted online, Cowherd received plenty of backlash.
