It didn’t take Dwayne Haskins long before he threw his NFL interception. And it turned out to be a huge mistake, as New York Giants safety Jabrill Peppers returned the interception 32 yards for a pick-six.
Peppers’ pick-six extended the Giants’ lead to 24-3.
Peppers had tight coverage on Redskins tight end Jeremy Sprinkle and jumped the pass. He had a lot of green in front him. All while wearing the No. 21 — Landon Collins’ former jersey number.
Adrian Peterson made sure to run up to the disappointed Haskins to give words of encouragement
Haskins replaced Case Keenum, who was benched, with 6:35 remaining in the second quarter. Haskins completed his first two passes for 15 yards, but has struggled since in his NFL debut.
