Joshua Dobbs Throws Two Touchdowns on Saturday, Secures QB2 Role in Detroit?

Saturday, August 29, 5:06 PM

Detroit Lions quarterback Joshua Dobbs put together a strong performance in his team's final preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday, completing 15 of 19 pass attempts for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Dobbs was signed by Detroit midway through the summer after the surprise retirement of former Lions quarterback Teddy Bridgewater. The veteran Dobbs is competing with undrafted rookie Luke Altmyer for Detroit's QB2 job behind starter Jared Goff. However, Dobbs outplayed Altmyer on Saturday and may have solidified himself as the Lions' backup quarterback to open the year. Assuming he makes Detroit's 53-man roster, the Lions will be Dobbs' seventh team as he heads into his seventh NFL season. His last extended run of playing time came in 2023, when he threw for 2,464 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions across 13 games (12 starts) split between the Arizona Cardinals and Minnesota Vikings. As long as Goff remains healthy, Dobbs should not be on the radar of fantasy managers.

Jaxson Dart Still an Exciting Quarterback for Dynasty Leagues

Saturday, October 10, 3:00 PM

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) underwent season-ending knee surgery after sustaining a torn meniscus in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Rams. The 23-year-old started his sophomore season with a bang, with a 26.6-point performance and finished as the QB4 overall in Week 1. However, Dart's breakout season was unfortunately cut short the following week. Dart was a trendy breakout candidate this offseason, but scared off some fantasy managers because of durability concerns. He has finished as a top-8 quarterback in seven of his 13 games he's played over 70 percent of the snaps. On the flip side, he had five concussion evaluations during his 12 games last season and suffered one diagnosed concussion. Dart's legs give him a top-6 fantasy quarterback ceiling, but his reckless nature outside the pocket could significantly shorten his career. The Ole Miss product remains an exciting dynasty quarterback moving forward if he finds a way to stay on the field.
