Some new info on Dwayne Haskins has been released.

According to the report, the former Steelers QB had a blood-alcohol level of 2 1/2 times the legal limit when he was killed on a South Florida highway last month, the Miami Herald reports.

Two blood samples were taken, blood coming back at .20 and another fluid at .24. The legal limit in Florida is .08. The Herald cited the autopsy report released by the Broward Medical Examiner’s Office.  Haskins also tested positive for ketamine and norketamine, per the report.

Both drugs can be used as medical anesthetics or recreationally, per the report.

Haskins had been out at a Miami nightclub the night before and got into a fight before leaving. He was in the car with a “female companion” who was not his wife when they ran out of gas. Haskins walked around for 20 minutes looking for gas, per the report.

Haskins’ wife Kalabrya, was heard explaining the situation to a 911 operator in a call released last month.

“I’m calling because my husband was stuck on the side of the highway. He had to go walk and get gas,” she tells a 911 operator. “I kept calling and kept calling, he wouldn’t answer.”
Haskins was hit by a dump truck while walking on I-595 near the airport in Fort Lauderdale on April 9. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Haskins was selected by Washington with the 15th overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft after a stellar college career at Ohio State.

The Steelers signed Haskins in early 2021, but he didn’t see any game action.
