Case Keenum C. Keenum

Case Keenum named Washington's Week 1 starter over Dwayne Haskins

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum has been named the starter for Week 1 versus the Philadelphia Eagles, per head coach Jay Gruden.

What It Means:

Keenum beat out rookie Dwayne Haskins to open the year, but he'll likely cede the starting job at some point this season. The journeyman quarterback went 16-of-30 (53.3 percent) for 213 yards (7.1 yards per attempt) with 1 touchdown and no interceptions in three preseason contests.

Keenum completed 365-of-586 passes (62.3 percent) for 3,890 yards (6.6 YPA) with 18 touchdowns and 15 interceptions for the Denver Broncos last season.
