Ohio State quarterback and 2018 Heisman Trophy finalist Dwayne Haskins declared for the 2019 NFL Draft on Monday.

The redshirt sophomore finished third in Heisman voting behind winner Kyler Murray of Oklahoma and Alabama's Tua Tagovailoa, with 46 first-place votes.

Haskins completed 70 percent of his 533 pass attempts this season for 4,831 yards with 50 touchdowns and eight interceptions while leading the Buckeyes to a 13-1 record. Ohio State topped Washington in the Rose Bowl 28-23 after beating Northwestern 45-24 in the Big Ten championship.

In December, the NFL's college personnel advisory board reportedly projected Haskins would be selected in the first round of the draft.
