More sad news regarding the passing of Dwayne Haskins.

The parents of Pittsburgh Steelers Quarterback Dwayne Haskins will not attend his funeral services on set for Friday. Why are they not attending their son’s funeral? Reportedly it has everything to do with them never meeting Dwayne’s wife.

They don’t want the first in person meeting be at their son’s funeral.

“We have never met or spoken to the wife, and we didn’t want our son’s funeral service to be the place we met her for the first time,” says Dwayne Sr. and Tamara Haskins in a statement.

This is just sad, but you have to figure there’s more to this story than meets the eye.

Haskins wife should definitely try to meet up and figure out a positive way to move forward.
