Parris Campbell pays tribute to Ohio State teammate Dwayne Haskins before MNF

Parris Campbell honored his former Ohio State teammate and former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins ahead of Monday Night Football.

Back in April, former Washington and Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins tragically passed away at the age of 24. While he was doing some offseason training with Steelers teammates, Haskins was struck by a vehicle while walking on the side of a highway in Florida. The Steelers paid tribute to Haskins, with players wearing his No. 3 on their helmets for the entire 2022 season.

On Monday night, the Steelers were the visiting team, taking on the Indianapolis Colts. One of the stars on the Colts offense is wide receiver Parris Campbell, who was teammates with Haskins during their time playing for the Ohio State Buckeyes. Ahead of kickoff at Lucas Oil Stadium, the very building where both won the Big Ten Championship in 2017 and 2018, Campbell wore a shirt with Haskins’ likeness on it as a way to honor his former teammate.
