Who Should I Start? Jacoby Brissett or Joshua Dobbs

Sunday, August 10, 10:40 AM

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett turned in a very good performance in the three-point win over the Kansas City Chiefs in the team's preseason opener. The veteran signal-caller finished the game with 81 yards and two touchdowns on 5-for-8 passing and one carry for 10 yards. His first score of the game came on a screen pass to Emari Demercado, while the second was on a great throw to second-year receiver Xavier Weaver in the end zone. Brissett has proven to be a reliable backup option, which could come in handy in case Kyler Murray runs into any health issues throughout the course of this season.

Free-agent veteran quarterback Joshua Dobbs reached an agreement with the New England Patriots on Monday on an undisclosed two-year deal, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. The 30-year-old journeyman signal-caller will head to the AFC East after spending the 2024 campaign with the San Francisco 49ers as a backup to Brock Purdy. Dobbs only appeared in two games (one start) for the Niners a season ago and went 32-for-47 for 361 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. He saw his most action (13 games) with the Arizona Cardinals and Minnesota Vikings in 2023 and threw for a career-high 2,464 yards with 13 touchdowns and 10 interceptions in 2023, also adding 421 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 77 carries. Dobbs has gone 3-12 in his 15 career NFL starts. Turnovers and decision-making have been an issue, but he'll provide experience as a backup to second-year QB Drake Maye.
