While Washington Football Team’s head coach Ron Rivera insists there is a way for second-year quarterback Dwayne Haskins to reclaim his starting spot, it appears that former Ohio State product is already on the exit door.

Haskins isn’t even a backup at this point, and according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Washington would be interested in dealing with the 23-year-old player.

Rapoport reports that the organization isn’t openly shopping Haskins but would be willing to part way with the player for the “right price”.

As Rapoport points out, no one has approached Washington to inquire about Dwayne Haskins until this point. But this could be a good opportunity for a team to swoop in and get a talented player on the cheap. Haskins hasn’t shown much in NFL so far, but he has a high ceiling and could thrive if he finds himself in the right situation.

The list of teams that might take a gamble on Haskins includes New England Patriots, who are currently looking like they are in need of a retool. Dallas Cowboys also seems like an interesting option, especially considering the uncertainty revolving around Dak Prescott.

In 13 games (11 starts) he played as a pro, Haskins completed 59.6 percent of his passes, throwing for 2,304 yards and 11 touchdowns. He is 3-8 as a starter.
