Over the weekend we learned of the tragic death of Dwayne Haskins. Some people, in a rush to break news rather than mourn the loss of life, treated the passing as if it were a player transaction. It was a reminder that we all have a responsibility to remember that athletes are people, first and foremost, and not just characters on a show or in a video game. They have families and friends, full lives, hopes and dreams that extend beyond the stadiums in which they ply their trade, and it is cruel and inhumane to boil them down to their stat lines or the biggest failures of their careers.
