The saga of Josh Dobbs has been one of the feel-good stories of the 2023 NFL season—the 28-year-old is on his third team of the season. He's gone from backup in Cleveland to interim starter in Arizona to benched to traded to the Minnesota Vikings. Since joining the Vikings as a fill-in for the injured Kirk Cousins, Dobbs has led the Vikings to two wins in three games and helped get Minnesota into the thick of the NFC Wild Card race, becoming something of a folk hero in the Twin Cities in the process.
Now, a quarterback who was completely off the radar in August is being discussed as a potential starter in 2024 for a team with a need under center.
