“I am devastated and at a loss for words with the unfortunate passing of Dwayne Haskins,” Mike Tomlin said in a statement. “He quickly became part of our Steelers family upon his arrival in Pittsburgh and was one of our hardest workers, both on the field and in our community. Dwayne was a great teammate, but even more so a tremendous friend to so many. I am truly heartbroken.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Kalabrya, and his entire family during this difficult time.”
Our thoughts continue to be with Haskins’ friends and family members during this time.
