Landon Collins was adamant that nobody in Redskins Park has quit on the season.

"A person with knowledge of Gruden's thinking has confirmed that the head coach did not want Haskins, and while Haskins has publicly downplayed any suggestion that he wasn’t Gruden's choice, a person close to the rookie QB said that Haskins has sensed that to be the case." https://t.co/VFoUWbRHZ8

Idk why, but He always sounds so unenthused. I hope that he gains some excitement as things get better for him. Situation wise.

Report: Jay Gruden didn't want Haskins, and Haskins can sense that https://t.co/DKdTjqd6Bf

Front offices should never force a player onto the coaching staff. If the coach didn’t believe in the kid as a prospect, he’s never going to give him everything that he needs to succeed.. Whether it is the instruction or the scheming, a young QB doesn’t have a chance w/o support https://t.co/XeYfVoA2fr

Gruden time
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) October 4, 2019
Colt McCoy will start. "I decided a long time ago."
That being said, does it change anything? They’ll still lose to the Pats. They’ll still be 0-5. Gruden will still get fired at some point.
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) October 4, 2019
Colt's a good guy. Starting has never been the problem. But the finishing...
— BGObsession.com (@BGObsession) October 4, 2019
This is a merciful move for Haskins to be honest https://t.co/SvFyqAF7JE
— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) October 4, 2019
Gruden said he decided on starting McCoy “long ago.” He added it was McCoy’s job to lose in camp before he got hurt
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) October 4, 2019
The way he said, "Yeah, I knew a long time ago" re: Colt said it all. Double middle fingers to everybody around him.
— AF (@TheDoctor08) October 4, 2019
Anybody who is surprised Colt McCoy is starting against Patriots hasn't been paying attention. Classic Wednesday line about wanting to see things was really about McCoy's physical readiness in practice.
— Rick Snider (@Snide_Remarks) October 4, 2019
I'm pre looking forward to Jay Gruden getting crushed for Dwayne Haskins being the No. 3 QB Sunday.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) October 4, 2019
Playing him is unacceptable/ unfair?
Making him 3rd on depth chart is unacceptable/ unfair?
So make him No. 2 but don't play him no matter what?
Just trying to keep up.
This is such a joke. Fire Gruden after practice today. How do you throw a kid into the fire like you did Sunday and then give him zero reps that week in practice? Gruden must go now. The longer they wait the more he destroys Haskins confidence. https://t.co/s2I1ceqmfz
— TomsulaTime (@AdamTaraschke) October 4, 2019
Most obvious statement is: this is what happens when the front office and coaching staff don’t share a common vision. The longer term issue (as in, until Snyder dies) is that this has happened over and over in the last 20 years with no course correction
— J.J. (@johnjosephmckay) October 4, 2019
Gruden starts McCoy, defends Haskins handling.. says talk of him quitting on team is “fighting words” https://t.co/osrJy3MAki
— John Keim (@john_keim) October 4, 2019
Yes, Jay Gruden hears the critiques. As has been evident for weeks and certified with the bravado in today's announcement of starting QB Colt McCoy, he no longer cares what folks think.https://t.co/W0a74dB6Vn
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) October 4, 2019
Colt McCoy is 1-0 vs Tom Brady and the Patriots as a starting QB in the regular season.

Receiver Terry McLaurin is questionable. Gruden said he’s probably 50-50 for Sunday. Game time decision.

Redskins decline to say anything about those Gruden videos https://t.co/7zJIe1Hmnv
— NBC Sports Redskins (@NBCSRedskins) October 4, 2019
Update: Some sources say 2 years ago. I tend to disagree due to Jay’s weight in the video but until I hear from a good source I’m gonna stick to within the past week.
— Burgundy Blast (@BurgundyBlast) October 4, 2019
Lol ugh. I honestly feel for Jay man. I hope he wins a SB at his next stop. 6 years here probably took ten off his life smh https://t.co/z5FqRRJlKG

Twitter is filled with gossipy, hypocritical peeping toms. Just awful.
— Chad Dukes (@chaddukes) October 4, 2019
Disagree, this is a Gruden leaking because he's been killed for the handling of Haskins
— Kareem (@Kareem_captain1) October 4, 2019
Of the two videos released today, the one where he stands at a podium and names Colt McCoy the starter is far more damaging.
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) October 4, 2019
The move to go with Colt McCoy isn’t a surprise. Gruden as well as his teammates absolutely love him. This could be more about a team morale boost as much as X’s and O’s.
— Lake Lewis Jr (@LakeLewis) October 4, 2019
I have been supportive of #Redskins coach Jay Gruden over the years even though I wish he ran the ball more, but I truly believe playing Haskins last week in NY was a call made from above. I hate that the players suffer again from more organizational disconnect & dysfunction.
— Lake Lewis Jr (@LakeLewis) October 4, 2019
Now with my last tweet, I will say even with a new coach we all know things still won’t change because it’s about the whole organization being on the same page, unifying, and being transparent. People need to know what is the real bottom line of the #Redskins?
— Lake Lewis Jr (@LakeLewis) October 4, 2019
Washington's next head coach will probably also be an offensive mind, I wouldn't be surprised to see Dan Snyder pursue Eric Bienemy

My brother, Clay, broke his jaw in last night’s game against the Seahawks. I’d be so grateful for prayers for a full, quick recovery for him. It kills me to see any of my family hurt. He was playing lights out, having accumulated 6 sacks in 5 games. He’ll be back...

Adam Gase is an offensive genius, and the way I know this is that the 2019 Jets are averaging under 3.45 yards per play through 3 games, and the last three teams to do that are the Art Shell Raiders and two expansion teams pic.twitter.com/K7Aal8iNeL
