After Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins was tragically killed in an accident this past Saturday morning, ESPN reporter Adam Schefter dropped the news on Twitter with an ignorant and inconsiderate tweet. The since deleted tweet mentioned Haskins on-field, and off-field struggles for no purpose. After nearly 3 days of no comment on the situation, Schefter finally apologized on his Podcast.

While the apology is late, it was necessary. And this type of great apology was well thought out and seemed to come from the heart.
Sportscenter posted this video tribute to Haskins today.
