The Dwayne Haskins era is underway in Washington.
The Redskins turned to the rookie quarterback after a poor start from Case Keenum against the New York Giants on Sunday.
In the first half, Keenum threw an interception and missed a wide-open downfield shot. The veteran is also coming off a five-turnover performance in Week 3.
Haskins struggled in his first taste of action, however, throwing for 107 yards and three interceptions in the 24-3 defeat - one that has seemingly put head coach Jay Gruden's job at risk.
The first-round pick starred during his final year at Ohio State, his only full season as a collegiate starter. He threw for 4,841 yards with 50 touchdowns and eight interceptions.
