Joshua Dobbs Expected To Start Against Saints

one year ago

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs is expected to start against the New Orleans Saints in Week 10. Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell said they'll practice this week as though Dobbs is the starter. This comes after Dobbs came off the bench and led the Vikings to a comeback victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, despite being traded to Minnesota just five days earlier. Dobbs completed 20 of his 30 passing attempts for 158 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed seven times for 66 yards and a score. The 28-year-old has fantasy upside due to his rushing prowess, and his ceiling could be raised when Justin Jefferson (hamstring) returns. Jefferson is eligible to come off the Injured Reserve list in Week 10.
