The parents of deceased Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins will not attend his funeral service in Pittsburgh on Friday. Haskins' family released a statement explaining they have not met Haskins' wife, and do not want their first meeting to come at Haskins' funeral.
Haskins was hit by a vehicle and killed the morning of April 9. He was reportedly trying to cross the interstate to get gas for his car. Haskins was 24.
Haskins' parents said they will hold public memorials for Haskins in New Jersey and Maryland over the weekend.
