The early returns are in on the Redskins’ quarterback competition, and Dwayne Haskins is lagging behind.

In a depth chart released by the team on Sunday, the Ohio State product was listed third, with both Colt McCoy and Case Keenum ahead. It’s only preliminary, so shouldn’t be taken as gospel by any means, nor is it particularly surprising.

Though Haskins has the pedigree of a first-round pick, McCoy has experience in Washington’s system and Keenum is a veteran with playoff experience. It would still be surprising if Haskins didn’t start at some point — and perhaps early in the season — but it’s not an automatic.

“I think they’ve all done some really good things without a doubt and they’ve all done some things that we’ve got to coach,” Redskins coach Jay Gruden told the team’s website. “Colt’s got the most experience in the system, but he still hasn’t played a whole lot. He hasn’t taken a lot of reps. Last year it was all about Alex (Smith), the year before that it was all about Kirk (Cousins) and getting them ready.

“Case has all the reps but he doesn’t have much experience in the system. He’s doing a nice job, and obviously Dwayne is a rookie.”

Presumably, the decision will ultimately be made on preseason performance, and the three will all get their share of reps.

All McCoy has earned to this point is the right to go first in the preseason opener. Seeing McCoy — a career backup — under center in Week 1 would still be a substantial surprise.
