Story of Ohio State star Dwayne Haskins’ death could take a shocking turn
The college football community was shocked to learn of the death of former Ohio State star quarterback Dwayne Haskins a year ago, but now there’s a surprising new development in the aftermath of that tragedy.
“As to what occurred in the hours before Dwayne was killed, many questions remain unanswered,” Ellsley’s statement said, in part.
This week, attorney Rick Ellsley of The Ellsley Law Firm sent out a press release announcing a lawsuit being filed on Haskins’ behalf over “previously unseen evidence.”
“It is believed that Dwayne was targeted and drugged as part of a blackmail and robbery conspiracy. In fact, his highly-expensive watch was stolen from him shortly before his death.”

Haskins’ sudden death and circumstances leading up to it were followed by a myriad of questions as to what happened, which authorities sought to answer.
The medical examiner’s report claimed that Haskins had been drinking heavily and had a “significant amount of alcohol in his blood” before he was hit and killed by a dump truck on a highway in south Florida, where he was training with fellow members of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The medical examiner said that Haskins died of blunt force trauma and ruled the death as accidental.
Reports say Haskins was hit by the truck at 6:37 a.m. and a pair of 911 emergency calls revealed that he was walking to get gas for his car.
The medical examiner noted that Haskins was trying to wave down cars on the highway to get a lift before he was struck and killed.
