Dwayne Haskins wore No. 7 at Ohio State — a number that hasn’t been worn by a Redskin in a game since Joe Theismann’s playing days.
But if Haskins wants to wear it with Washington, that would be fine with Theismann.
Appearing on 106.7 The Fan, Theismann said Wednesday he gave Haskins his blessing for the new quarterback to wear his old number. Theismann had previously told NBC Sports Washington that he first wanted to meet Haskins before giving his approval.
