CJ Stroud honored Dwayne Haskins during Ohio State’s spring game on Saturday in a very cool way.

Stroud, who is entering his second full season as Ohio State’s starting quarterback, wore a jersey with Haskins’ name on the back.

Haskins died last weekend after being hit by a dump truck while walking on the highway. The 24-year-old played quarterback at Ohio State from 2016-2018. He had a huge season as a sophomore in 2018, passing for 50 touchdowns and eight interceptions. The team went 13-1, losing to Purdue but winning the Big Ten and subsequent Rose Bowl against Washington.

Ohio State also held a moment of silence to honor Haskins.

Number 7 honors Number 7.
