Joshua Dobbs Rushes For Touchdown In Second Straight Preseason Game

Monday, August 19, 12:51 AM

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joshua Dobbs took the bulk of the offensive snaps for the team in a 16-10 preseason victory over the New Orleans Saints in Santa Clara on Sunday night. The 29-year-old entered the game for San Francisco's fourth possession following a struggling Brock Purdy offense. Dobbs would remain at the helm for three point-generating possessions before yielding to Brandon Allen at the half. Dobbs totaled 12 of 21 passes completed for 133 yards with no sacks or interceptions. He added three carries for 25 yards, including an impressive reverse-field scramble for a first down and a one-yard touchdown plunge. While preseason successes -- and failures -- should be taken with a grain of salt, San Francisco has to be happy to see a continuation of the skills Dobbs flashed in 2023 with Arizona and Minnesota. Dobbs is not fantasy-rosterable at this point but should draw some waiver-wire action if Purdy misses time.

J.K. Dobbins Explodes In His Chargers Debut

Sunday, September 8, 7:50 PM

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins had a huge game in his Week 1 Chargers debut. Dobbins ran the ball 10 times, gaining 135 yards and scoring a touchdown. He was targeted three times in the passing game, catching all three for four yards. Dobbins scored on a 12-yard run at the beginning of the fourth quarter and also put up a 61-yard run to help ice the game. He was a force out of the backfield in this one and vastly outperformed Gus Edwards. Week 2 should be another strong performance for the Chargers offense, as they face the Carolina Panthers. Dobbins has his fantasy arrow pointing straight up after this game.
