Will the Current Treatment of HASKINS Effect His Tenure and Performance with the Redskins?

Haskin’s is the last elite QB from the 2019 draft to be played by his team. Even with the change of the HC after five games, or its 0-5 season, it may be possible that Haskins may not play this season. The Redskin’s leadership continues to think that even though the team may win only 1-2 games this season, it is more beneficial to play QB losers such as Case Keenum (6 turnovers over the last 6 quarters of play) or Colt McCoy (119 passing yds and 60 QB rating in his debut against the Patriots). Will the Redskin’s lack of confidence in Haskins NOW; or perhaps its over-protectiveness cause Haskin’s to leave later?

The arguments against Haskins playing this season:
1. He’s not ready
2. Our poor OL will stunt his growth
3. He’ll have a new HC next year

These arguments overlook one major point: the longer the team DOESN’T play him, the more ANGER and FRUSTRATION he will build toward the franchise. Other losing franchises, such as the Giants, are taking a chance on their rookie QB. Why aren’t we? Haskins Also learned that Gruden didn’t want to draft him. There is some suspicion that Gruden may have thrown Haskins into the Bear’s game, in a totally unprepared condition, in order to get him to fail (Gruden’s attempt to get BA and Snyder to fire him?). Weekly, Haskins watches NFL cast off QB’s like Keenum and McCoy get game experience that he desperately needs. Then these two PERFORM POORLY and lose badly.

The same conditions and treatment ultimately were a MAJOR reason that Kirk Cousins wanted to be traded at the end of his contract. Will Haskin’s leave the team in 5 years because of how he is being treated now? Will the lack of confidence and preparation this season hurt his performance later?
