ASHBURN, Va. – Dwayne Haskins is set to start at quarterback for Washington on Sunday against Seattle because starter Alex Smith is out with a right calf injury.Coach Ron Rivera ruled out Smith and standout rookie running back Antonio Gibson on Friday and named Haskins the starter.
Smith had hoped to play despite not taking part in full practices this week.“Getting to watch him do some of his movements and some of the things he was going to have to do in the game, he still felt a little tight,” Rivera said.Haskins will be making his first start since a Week 4 loss to Baltimore.
