Jake Haener won’t read this for a reason. But will that help the UW Huskies QB win a starting job?

Jake Haener is not reading this.

He did not read The Times’ most recent practice report, either, which noted that Washington’s sophomore quarterback threw three interceptions — and narrowly avoided two more — during Wednesday morning’s practice. He did not wade through the murky waters of the UW message boards this winter, many of which anointed former five-star signal caller Jacob Eason the team’s 2019 starter (or some might spell it “s-a-v-i-o-r”). He did not overanalyze the veritable avalanche of April tweets — check this reporter’s mentions for receipts — that called for an emphatic early end to the Huskies’ ongoing quarterback competition.
