Dwayne Haskins Has 'No Problem' Sitting Behind Eli Manning If Drafted by Giants

Former Ohio State quarterback and 2019 NFL draft prospect Dwayne Haskins told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network that he would have "no problem" sitting behind New York Giants signal-caller Eli Manning if Big Blue were to pick him.

"Eli Manning is a legend," Haskins told Rapoport on the RapSheet and Friends podcast (via Adam Maya of NFL.com). "I grew up watching Eli and I'd have no problem sitting behind him and learning from him, like how I did with J.T. [Barrett] at Ohio State.

"Whatever team drafts me, I'll be able to sit back and learn from the guy that's there and be able to compete with him and push him, but know that a guy's there because he's a veteran, he's done it before, he's professional.
