Former Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Commanders quarterback Dwayne Haskins passed away last April following a tragic car accident in Florida. Now, new details emerge on his condition before the incident and what happened leading to his death.
TMZ revealed the investigation results of the Broward County Medical Examiner’s Office, which highlighted that Haskins had alcohol in his body and ingested ketamine hours before the tragedy. In the same report, a rep from the Steelers also apparently said that Haskins went clubbing after practice on April 8 and “drank heavily” and even got into a fight.
According to an autopsy report that was also released on Monday, two of Haskins’ blood samples tested positive for alcohol — with one revealing a .20 BAC, and the other a .24. The report also showed Haskins’ urine samples tested positive for ketamine and norketamine.
Dwayne Haskins got struck by a dump truck while trying to cross a South Florida highway. The ex-Steelers QB was reportedly searching for gas when the incident happened. His cause of death was ruled to be multiple blunt force injuries caused by an accident.
Investigators also shared that Haskins was “improperly in the roadway” during the accident, while the driver of the dump truck was said to not have “taken any actions that contributed to the accident.”
