Ron Rivera is pushing back against the idea that Dwayne Haskins is done with the Washington Football Team.

"It's funny, I benched the guy and it's like everybody thinks his career is over here in Washington. It's not. There's potential, there's opportunity. The kid has an NFL arm, it's just a matter of him developing," Rivera said.

Rivera cited that Haskins was only the starter for one year at Ohio State and has started just 11 games in the NFL.

"Everybody forgets he played 12 games of college football and then last year he really didn't get into the swing of things until the end of the year," he said. "I did everything I could to give him 11 weeks as the No. 1 [quarterback]."
