Dwayne Haskins, who started at quarterback for the Washington Football Team in Week 14, was seen partying without a mask on Sunday night and without social distancing at a strip club, in images circulating on social media.
According to ESPN's Josh Keim, the organization has been made aware of the posts that seem to show Haskins partying with a host of women in No. 7 jerseys, just hours after Washington lost a home game to the Seattle Seahawks, 20-15, at FedEx Field.
Here are some images:
Dwayne Haskins was finally back as a starter [due to injury] and after losing to the #Seahawks, apparently decided to party at a strip club.
The team is aware of the posts and are in contact with the league while handling it internally, per @NickiJhabvala pic.twitter.com/z5uYHTQJ19

Is this Dwayne Haskins? I really hope not. These women are all wearing Washington #7 shirts yesterday and that certainly does look like #7 himself partying maskless last night with strippers after the game. pic.twitter.com/BxgHdjuiCe

Per Keim, Washington found out about Haskins' actions on Monday, but took a day to decide how to proceed. He noted that the team has been in contact with the league and is handling the matter internally.
Haskins has apologized for the incident:

The second-year QB was fined earlier in the season for inviting a family friend to the team hotel before a game, in violation of the NFL's COVID-19 protocols. The league's protocols also mandate mask-wearing at all times, and his maskless party on Sunday would, obviously, be in direct violation of that.
